+<h3><a name="tag-D6">A file-selector dialog for XBoard</a></h3>
+<p>
+Until now the only way to select a file for opening in XBoard (e.g. with Load Game)
+was to type its name in a small dialog box.
+This has now changed, as we borrowed the file browser from GhostView and ported it to XBoard.
+For every file you want to open you can now navigate through your file system,
+seeing the contents of three levels of directories at once,
+and just clicking on the file you want to load.

WinBoard will not automatically exit after a match that was started this way finishes,
as it does with matches started with the -mg or -mm option.
