It is the class FileList. It serves as model for the file browser.

You could have found out yourself by bringing up the halo on the window,
selecting the debug handle and inspect the window. In the "model" instance
variable you find the FileList object. This works for every window :-)

OTOH, you might better off starting with FileList2 (the one used to find
projects)  or the ObjectExplorer (the Ctrl-I thing).
