Browse button for tkinter

Hello, I would like to add a browse button to one of my graphical interfaces, but lazy as I am I don't really want to program myself a browse button (you know the kind of button you use to open a file somewhere in your hard disk, if of course you are not a linux professional and open all your files with the terminal...)

Is there such a button already built in Tkinter or do you know somewhere to find it, i did a little research and it doesn't seem that common...

Thanks,
erwin

At least you are honest about it

The Browse button is just a button which launches the file or directory dialog. Nothing special

This code...

Code:
Tkinter.Button(subframe, text = "Browse", command = self.loadtemplate, width = 10).pack()

Code:
    def loadtemplate(self): 
        filename = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename(filetypes = (("Template files", "*.tplate")
                                                             ,("HTML files", "*.html;*.htm")
                                                             ,("All files", "*.*") ))
        if filename: 
            try: 
                self.settings["template"].set(filename)
            except: 
                tkMessageBox.showerror("Open Source File", "Failed to read file \n'%s'"%filename)
                return


This should show you the basic idea.
