No Title in Directory Folder Picker

Robert Lockwood
In my macro the user is to provide both a source directory and a
destination directory but in MacOS 10.14.03, Mojave, there is no title in
the folder picker.

Macro:
  input = getDirectory("Select Source Directory ");
  output = getDirectory("Choose Destination Directory ");

Google has not been my friend, today.

My usual work-around is to display the prompt message as a status.

In Java:

        String message = "Choose a directory...";
        IJ.showStatus(message);
        DirectoryChooser dc = new DirectoryChooser(message);

Others have suggested other fixes, but this was the easiest method for me.

Thanks, Kenneth, but I can't make those lines work with macros, they look
as if they belong in Java code.
