This is more of a KDE question but maybe someone here knows the answer.
I keep my .sch files in a variety of project directories. If I need a component only for one schematic I will create a ./sym directory and store it there.
I add a local gschemrc file to set a search path and type gschem filename.sch from that directory to access the drawing. Works fine.
I set up KDE to add gschem to my menu and I can use it's gui to click on the file and bring up the schematic in gschem but it doesn't find the components. If I configure KDE by setting the working directory to the full path name where the .sch is kept then it works. But if I set the working directory to . it defaults to ~.
How do I tell KDE to set the working directory to the same one where you found the file.
