Dear devs,
It would be very nice if Geany would use the path selected in the file browser as the current path. Creating and saving a new file doesn't require the user to browse to the desired location then...
Personally, I don't like this. Some of the time it might be useful, but often I have some other subdirectory open in the file browser from where I want to save files. I like having to make sure I'm saving the file in the right place. For projects, the base path is assumed, but I think this is a good trade off. There's no guarantee the file browser will have a path anywhere near the project path.
I agree and furthermore it would be not quite easy to query the current path from the filebrowser plugin in Geany.
