I know how to use NavCreateChooseFolderDialog to get a folder and

FSSpecs have been deprecated for a long time. You should be working
with FSRefs at this point.
I don't even know how to get started updating my file-handling
skills. Do FSRefs work with the Nav routines, which seem to operate
on FSSpecs, or do I have to use a completely different set of routines
for presenting file opening/saving dialogs?
and select File Management, I don't see a single over-arching "here's
how to start learning the new nondeprecated methods" documentation.
What I do see, third in the list, is the link to the Nav routines,
without a deprecation message, which teaches file management using
FSSpecs, as I showed above.
Help.
Thanks.
