Ulf,

With the implementation of the "recent" file, it looked like the geometry stuff and "Remembered Dir" stuff was removed from main.c, and it looks like most of the geometry stuff was reimplemented in recent.c, but I can't see where the Remembered Dir code was reintroduced (parts were moved from prefs.c, but not the code that actually *set* the value of the remembered dir - at the moment the recent.gui_fileopen_remembered_dir is always NULL and never gets flushed out to a file).

Am I just missing the code? Remember directory definitely hasn't worked for a couple of weeks now...

Thanks,
Ian


This was a bug.

Checked in a bugfix, which uses and saves the last_open_dir var instead of using the value in the recent structure.

The last remembered dir should be working as expected again, now.
