When opening file, default directory should match the directory of the current file about pyscripter HOT 6 CLOSED

Just do it in the File Explorer.  Press the directrory toolbar button, select 
Browse
Path, Active Script.  Then double click the file you want to open.  I think 
this is
faster than what you described.

Ok, I meant almost as fast :)

Not as fast because just pressing CTRL+O is quite faster than what you 
describe, plus
you can use filename completion in the default open file dialog. All without 
touching
the mouse while coding.

Please rethink of this issue. It's really easy to code, can't really be 
harmful, and
is surely useful in some circumstances.

I'd love this too. It's a big time saver for those of used to the keyboard -- 
i.e. 
the context switch of switching to the mouse, pressing the button, browse path, 
etc 
is a little disruptive when you just want to quickly open a file in the same 
directory (which is the most common scenario -- in my case :)).

This was fixed ages ago.

Oops. I just tested and you're right -- thanks.
