 @vindex x-gtk-use-old-file-dialog
   For Gtk+ version 2.4 through 2.10, you can make Emacs use the old file dialog
-by setting the variable @code{x-gtk-use-old-file-dialog} to a non-@code{nil}
-value.  If Emacs is built with a Gtk+ version that has only one file dialog,
+(gtk-file-selector) by setting the variable @code{x-gtk-use-old-file-dialog}
+to a non-@code{nil} value.  Otherwise the gtk-file-chooser will be used.  
+If Emacs is built with a Gtk+ version that has only one file dialog,
 the setting of this variable has no effect.
 
+@vindex x-gtk-file-dialog-help-text
+  Emacs will by default add some help text to the Gtk+ file chooser dialog.
+If you don't want to see that text, you can customize the variable
+@code{x-gtk-file-dialog-help-text}.  A @code{nil} value will disable the
+help text.
