Hi all, I received this Issue report today and would like some comments since it is mostly a feature request (and not a bug).
I'm not sure what I think myself. The "Open/Save dialog" on OS X remembers its "own" present working directory for each app (it is stored as a user default and changes each time you navigate somewhere using one of these dialogs) so making these dialogs use the Vim pwd would effectively "break" this standard behaviour. On the other hand I can understand that some would prefer if the Vim-pwd was used instead. Any comments? Thanks, Björn Reported by lnezda, Today (4 hours ago) What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. use command mode to cd or open a window from Terminal when there is already a "base macvim instance running" (commandline) launched from a different directory. 2. hit Open button (or Save an unsaved buffer) What is the expected output? What do you see instead? - Expect (ideally) that each open dialog prompt's pwd would track that window's vim pwd like vim's command mode :e/:w does. Instead, it seems to use the base instance's *open* pwd (e.g. the one that started the initial macvim window). This pwd selection is confusing and may cause some users to avoid all the nice OS X file dialogs in macvim altogether. I concede that some users may like this behavior (at least on a per-window basis) so maybe it could be a non-defaulted option? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
