incorrect "save as" path in certain situations

#1 incorrect "save as" path in certain situations

Posted by: Gorlash | Date: 2014-09-24 15:22 | IP: IP Logged

This situation only occurs when loading files from the command line (which is how I always work tongue sticking out smiley ); furthermore it only occurs when opening a *new* file, not an existing file.

Say I am in a directory such as c:\home\files and open new file:
pspad new_file.cpp

The actual path and filename for this file are c:\home\files\new_file.cpp

However, pspad does not pick up the current path; it shows the filename (on the title bar) as "new_file.cpp", with no path. Then, when I go to save the file after editing, it opens the Save As dialog, and offers some other path as the destination, rather than my current directory.

This is *very* inconvenient!! It can take quite a bit of clicking to maneuver back to my current directory to save the file...

I would request that when opening a new file, please use the current directory as the base path; also, Save As should not be required, since I already have specified a filename.

I would be *very* grateful if you would consider this!
