New extension: File read and download

[GarboMuffin]

which opens a modal that looks like this (design temporary, known to be ugly) because we can't reliably open an input dialog without user interaction

Is the modal customizable? And if it cannot, can it be hidden? Thanks! :)

[FilipeCollura]

That is not an available option. I can only choose to either show the modal or open the selector immediately.

I'll restate what I said in #28 (yes that's a bit buried and hard to find)

I'm hesitant to add a way to remove the prompt entirely because:

• Browsers don't always let us open a file dialog, and they don't tell us when they refuse to, so the script would get stuck forever if there wasn't a way for people to manually open the dialog
• Browsers don't reliably tell us when someone presses cancel on the dialog (only Firefox implements oncancel), so people need way to cancel the file dialog manually, otherwise the script gets stuck forever
• Drag+drop is a very common way for people to select files. Operating system files prompts do not accommodate this.

Regardless, I did end up adding this as a hidden mode:

(the second text input there is completely empty, not even a space)

for the reasons mentioned previously, I don't recommend using this mode, so it hasn't been added to the dropdown at this time.

If you want additional customization, please describe that more specifically

Thanks for this info. I wanted to remove it completely because it really didn't fit with my projects theme. If there's a way to customize the popup so that it can fit my theme, it would be great! :)
