selectInput selectOutput info

Dear all
I have to use the selectInput function on my sketch.
Unfortunately I can’t find a detailed description of it. I don’t understand, for example, how to direct the selectInput in a directory or how to use file filter as “*.txt”

Thank you very much for your help and cooperation
regards

In addition to searching this forum and the old forum, there is the reference page – and keep in mind that you can also click through and find it in the JavaDoc:

…or even search the source code:

/**
 * Open a platform-specific file chooser dialog to select a file for input.
 * After the selection is made, the selected File will be passed to the
 * 'callback' function. If the dialog is closed or canceled, null will be
 * sent to the function, so that the program is not waiting for additional
 * input. The callback is necessary because of how threading works.
