Select files as prompt

[apprehensions]

Allow for xfiles to select a few files to stdout seperated by newlines, after xfiles quits.

nnn(1) has support for this via the -p parameter.

Unfortunately, there is no way to quit xfiles other than killing it, so i don't think this will be possible.

My only suggestion would be to allow Ctrl+Q to be the only xfiles keybind for it to cleanly exit.

That's something I have in mind: a file-selection dialog mode.
I am not sure how I should implement it (do I add a cancel and a confirmation button like in most DE's file dialogs?).
Soon after I figure out how it should be done I will start working on it.

Instead of implementing it in xfiles, use xmenu or pmenu or that other one I used to use in shod.

What my issue is here to simply select files, cleanly exit and get the selected files from stdout.

anything new about this? i would like to use xfiles as my file selector using xdg portals!
