uiget opens a dialog box that allows the user to select folder(s) and/or file(s) in a single UI. This is designed as a generic alternative to MATLAB's more specific UI selection tools: uigetdir and uigetfile.
Syntax:
file = uiget()
[file, path] = uiget()
___ = uiget(basepath)
___ = uiget(basepath, Name, Value)
Available Name, Value Pairs:
MultiSelect - Specify whether a user can select multiple files or folders
ScalarPathOutput - Specify whether a scalar path is output when using MultiSelect
Title - Specify a custom dialog title
ExtensionFilter - Specify a custom file extension filter
See README.md for detailed documentation and examples
