+.SH NAME
+tk_chooseDirectory \- pops up a dialog box for the user to select a directory.
+.PP
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBtk_chooseDirectory \fR?\fIoption value ...\fR?
+.BE
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+The procedure \fBtk_chooseDirectory\fR pops up a dialog box for the
+user to select a directory. The following \fIoption\-value\fR pairs are
+possible as command line arguments:
+.TP
+\fB\-initialdir\fR \fIdirname\fR
+Specifies that the directories in \fIdirectory\fR should be displayed
+when the dialog pops up. If this parameter is not specified, then
+the directories in the current working directory are displayed. If the
+parameter specifies a relative path, the return value will convert the
+relative path to an absolute path.  This option may not always work on
+the Macintosh.  This is not a bug. Rather, the \fIGeneral Controls\fR
+control panel on the Mac allows the end user to override the
+application default directory.
+.TP
+\fB\-parent\fR \fIwindow\fR
+Makes \fIwindow\fR the logical parent of the dialog. The dialog
+is displayed on top of its parent window.
+.TP
+\fB\-title\fR \fItitleString\fR
+Specifies a string to display as the title of the dialog box. If this
+option is not specified, then a default title will be displayed.
+.TP
+\fB\-mustexist\fR \fIboolean\fR
+Specifies whether the user may specify non-existant directories.  If
+this parameter is true, then the user may only select directories that
+already exist.  The default value is \fIfalse\fR.
