Synopsis
URL selection dialog
URL selection dialog
Puts up a standard Choose URL dialog (with a Connect button); this is rather like the Finder's Connect to Server dialog, useful for finding servers on the local network, with an option to let the user choose various categories of server. The user can also just type a URL unless you prevent it; this can be basically any string at all. Does not actually connect! Returns a string.
Example
choose URL showing File servers -- "afp://duck.local."
