Feature request: add search to file picker or let us use OS default picker
When opening a song in JJazzLab, there is no search functionality. I have to remember if the file was called on-green-dolphin-street or green-dolphin-street. I can't just type dolphin in a search input and find it. Most programs on my PC let me search when opening a file. Many programs for Windows or Mac offer the option to use that OS's default picker rather than the picker associated to that program's graphical toolkit, the default picker often offers additional functionality such as search. Either that, or adding search to the current file picker, would alleviate this problem.
I made a quick search, there is no simple way to do this. I'm stuck with the default java's JFileChooser.
@jjazzboss is it possible to implement some search in JFileChooser? Even basic substring search would be great...
It's possible but I won't do it, it's not that simple, you will need extensive validation tests on all platforms. Feel free to submit a PR though.
