This appears in brief testing to work as intended. The most tricky thing I
tested:
- ekr-path-test
- @path ~\ekr-test
-@file ~\ekr-tricky-test\test1.txt
What should be the directory path for *test1.txt*? I would expect that the
*~\ekr-tricky-test\
*should override the path in the *@path* node because of the leading "~"
(which ought to denote an absolute path), and that is what happened. All
the directories got created when I saved the outline.
Tested with:
Leo 6.4-devel, ekr-1903-path branch, build 43e51f1cef
2021-04-22 19:16:07 -0500
Python 3.8.9, PyQt version 5.15.1
Windows 10 AMD64 (build 10.0.19041) SP0
