"Change to file base directory" would be more explicitly written "Change* global working directory *to file base directory..." The change happens when a file is opened or saved in the editor (assuming you selected one/both of the option boxes in the preferences dialog). That is, if you've selected the "when opening a file" option and you open a file in the editor, then the global working directory is changed to the directory where that file is located. Similar for the saving option. Jim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "spyder" group.
