Here's one:
Call Addlib('rexxarplib.library',0,-30,0)
filename = GetFile(x, y, 'dir', 'file', 'title')
where x and y are the coordinates of the upper right corner of the
requester, 'dir' is the name of the starting directory, 'file' is
the default file in the flie gadget, and 'title' is the title to
appear in the title bar of the requester.

P.S. 1/2 :-) Seriously, rexxarplib is the only sensible way to get at
Intuition functions, including gadgets, requesters, etc., from ARexx.
