OK, makes sense. Now, how can I prompt for the name of a file that
doesn't exist (yet)?

If you put a '/' at the end of the default string it will prompt
the user for a directory.
If you leave off the '/' at the end of the default string it will
prompt the user for a file.
Examples:
(PF_FILE, "pf_afile", _("Choose File:"), "/home/jbaker"), #
Choose a file
(PF_FILE, "pf_adir", _("Choose Directory:"), "/home/jbaker/"),
# Choose a directory
or
(PF_FILE, "pf_afile", _("Choose File:"), ""),
(PF_FILE, "pf_adir", _("Choose Directory:"), "/"),

PF_FILE and PF_FILENAME, and how to ask for a file name to

I'm writing a python plugin that saves things to a file, and I'm trying
to come up with the right parameter type to obtain a filename form the user.
There are PF_FILE and PF_FILENAME parameter types. Both correspond to a
string with the file name in it. Furthermore the file must exist for
both, so they cannot be used for the name of a file to be created? Why
are there two types if they do the same thing? Am I missing something?
