In a specific folder means in some folder somewhere at disk, or some folder inside love game folder or love data folder?

I have no experience with slab (maybe someone can help you more), but basically create some buttons, when clicked reload, reload files list by love.filesystem.getDirectoryItems, and put it into table or list or something like this in slab, and clicking open file just get name of selected file and open it with love.filesystem.open
