[PD] "Open file" in specific directory

the open dialog's path starts from wherever pd was launched,
and if you are launching pd from a menu item, then it starts
from where the desktop manager was launched etc etc..
you can test this out by launching pd from a console,
starting at the folder you desire. if you need this to
always be the case create a wrapper shell script for pd
which changes directory (cd /path/) previous to launching,
or simply create an alias to pd in your .bashrc :
alias pd='cd /usr/lib/pd ; pd ; cd $OLD_PWD'
