Ah. This makes sense.
i am not sure what you would like to achieve with [pwd] or [cd] that is: if you could manage with [pwd] and [cd], why can't you do so with the current absolute/relative path in [openpanel]?
I was just looking for a quick hack to get my patches working that try to open up a specific directory using [openpanel]. But I guess the real solution is making [openpanel]/[savepanel] relative to the patch it they live in. I don't really know how this would work for an [openpanel]/[savepanel] within an abstraction.
i agree with you, that this new feature of [openpanel] and [savepanel] is kind of bogus the way it is implemented now. in so many cases you rather would want to set a path relative to the patch instead of relative to pd start location.
i personally think, that [[open][save]panel]s within abstractions should behave accordingly: path should be relative to the file location (the path that is written in the window title, when you open the window).
the same goes for the 'open' message to pd: i can't think of a good reason for the actual behaviour. relative to the patch would make much more sense, IMO.
i stop saying this over and over again, as soon as someone comes up with a really good explanation for the current implementation(sorry for being so strongheaded).
I also think the default should be relative to the patch. I am not quite sure now to handle abstractions, that's worth discussing more. I don't have time to work on it now, but if someone posts a bug in the tracker (or feature request, if you think that's better), I'll try my hand at it later.
It's always useful to include a link to web archive to related discussions like this in the bug tracker.
On a related note, for this release, I made Save As default to the Home folder (~/), what do people think about that?
