Keeps the window from growing and shrinking as you change to different
directories, which I find really distracting.

For Motif 2, makes the files in the file list be relative paths to a
single directory. Similar to a Windows/Mac file dialog box.
The original Motif file selection box actually is built to work off file
globs that can span multiple directories (like /foo/bar/*/*/*/*.c), so
the file list can show files across multiple directories. Very few
people care about this, and it's confusing for people who expect it to
work like Windows/Mac.

It fixes the "Home" key in the directory text field, though I think this
workaround is now inside NEdit.
