And get the selected files:

```python
>>> import findersel

>>> list(findersel.get_selected_files())
['/Users/sdelquin/findersel/LICENSE',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/Makefile',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/README.md',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/requirements.txt',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/setup.cfg',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/setup.py']
```

> Note than the function returns a **generator**.

You can get the selected files _ordered by name_ with:

```python
>>> import findersel

>>> list(findersel.get_selected_files(sort=True))
['/Users/sdelquin/findersel/Makefile',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/README.md',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/requirements.txt',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/setup.cfg',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/setup.py',
 '/Users/sdelquin/findersel/LICENSE']
```
