The file selection dialogs in PCB do not allow the entry of the forward-slash character '/'. I always thought this was a bug, but in looking at the code this character is deliberately not allowed to be entered.
" ... additionally ignore 'spaces' and 'slashes' during input ..." I was wondering why? Is it a security risk? I'd like to be able to just type in the path I want, as I can type far faster than I can point&click. I just submitted patch #1103321 that adds a directory history and 'HOME' , to ease some of the point&click pain, to the file selection preset widget.
