From 47505ec47c3991a63cac0fd3b274cbf77da82d89 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Mueller Date: Sun, 25 Nov 2018 09:08:27 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Set correct working directory on startup When vifm is started it enters into an event loop, as part of which it changes the working directory to that of the current view's containing directory. Unfortunately that only happens after an event was received, i.e., after a key was pressed, for example. That can be a problem if the working directory is expected to be valid before that (which can be the case for example inside of a tmux session where a new shell is spawned in the same directory as the vifm instance). With this change we add an additional chdir just in front of the event loop and thereby fix this problem. --- src/event_loop.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/event_loop.c b/src/event_loop.c index 8ebf48..9dae81 100644 --- a/src/event_loop.c +++ b/src/event_loop.c @@ -103,6 +103,10 @@ event_loop(const int *quit) curr_input_buf = &input_buf[0]; curr_input_buf_pos = &input_buf_pos; + /* Make sure to set the working directory once in order to have the + * desired state even before any events are processed. */ + (void)vifm_chdir(flist_get_dir(curr_view)); + while(!*quit) { wint_t c; -- 2.19.2
