<br>
It would, for sure, be interesting to be able to at least set the
"workspace" environment (just like Eclipse is doing/asking when
starting it for the first time). This way, when you open or
create a new project (Project - Open... / Project - New...), it
will (should) always take the given directory as a starting point.<br>
<br>
And since, I think, most people use a "fixed" starting path for
their projects (e.g. <prefix>/Python/Projects), this should
be beneficial/useful for quite some people, if not all.<br>

built in. eric uses the standard behavior of the QFileDialog,
when no "directory" is given. According to the docs it will use
the current working directory. Which situations would you
suggest to be changed?</p>
