[Glade-users] File Selection Directory

[Manu C S]

Hi,

I need to create a file selection widget which allows
a user to select some system files.

My problem is that the file selection widget generates
the file list corresponding to the current working directory
whereas I need it to list out files residing in another 
directory. Is there a way?

I tried (foolishly?) to use 
    system("cd system_directory")
before creating my widget, but it didn't work.
