.. class:: MultiDirDialog(wx.Dialog)

   A different implementation of :class:`DirDialog` which allows multiple
   folders to be selected at once.

   .. method:: __init__(self, parent, message=_("Choose one or more folders:"), title=_("Browse For Folders"), defaultPath="", style=wx.DD_DEFAULT_STYLE, agwStyle=DD_MULTIPLE, pos=wx.DefaultPosition, size=wx.DefaultSize, name="multidirdialog")

      Default class constructor.
      
      :param `parent`: the dialog parent widget;
      :param `message`: the message to show on the dialog;
      :param `title`: the dialog title;
      :param `defaultPath`: the default path, or the empty string;
      :param `style`: the underlying :class:`Dialog` window style;
