Hi Ben,
This has bothered me for quite some time on Windows XP, it's also in Vim 7.2 and probably in Vim 7.1 as well. I never bothered tracking down the steps to reproduce because it seemed to me that it was intermittent when I loaded files. Is it readily reproduceable using :drop? I use a variety of commands to load files.
Thanks for confirming the problem. When I use gvim --remote-tab-silent (which triggers :tab drop in the existing Vim instance) Vim always ends up in the wrong working directory for me, even when Vim was started with the command line gvim -u NONE -U NONE --noplugin -N --cmd 'set acd'. So yes, I can consistently reproduce this.
I'd certainly like to see it fixed if it is not intentional for some reason. The workaround I found is to switch windows, tabs, or buffers, and come back to it, and 'acd' takes effect.
Executing :set acd or :edit again also works. - Peter Odding -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to. For more information, visit http://www.vim.org/maillist.php
