Re: Scripts For Using Current Directory Updated

[Thomas Passin]

OK, here they are.

Here's an example of how they can be used. You have a node and you want to 
have some images that you can display with, say, VR3.  You want to put them 
into an *images* subdir, but you have to navigate there first.  How can you 
do that?  With the *show-current-dir* button you just click it and the 
system's file manager/Windows Explorer window opens on that directory. Now 
you can copy those image files to the *images* subdirectory.
