[PD] Directory of opened patch

[Philip Stone]

Thanks for the pointers to externals, Alexandre, and yes, I did mean “[openpanel]”.  😊

I think this is an important functionality, and would love to see it in Vanilla.

here's the discussion on github.

https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/557

 i consider this a bug since the help says a bang "Starts open panel in current directory"

So until it gets fixed, you can try an external to get the current directory, although we've also had discussions that we should have such an object in vanilla. But again, you're still depending on it until anything happens.

I can suggest [else/dir] from my library

everyone else just uses [ggee/getdir], which is much simpler and just spits the directory

cheers
