Current working directory

[Tom Hillson]

I have PLD version 5.1.4.730.

Is there any preferences to have the "current working folder" follow the active document. This is a feature in TextPad that I really like. I wasn't able to find it anywhere in the preferences.

Thanks,
Tom

That's really neat.

It would be nice to have this.

How exactly does that work?

TextPad keeps track of the current working directory based on the location of current file. If the current file is located in c:\dw\dir1 then when you click on File->Open it opens to that directory. If you change the active file to file2 which lives in c:\dw\dir2 then the file open, save-as dialogs now use that directory.

It is very useful. Let me know if you need more info. Would something like that be possible?

Thanks for a great product. Just trying to make it even better...

I see what you mean. I have added this option to the list of enhancement requests.
