[squeak-dev] FileList and launching via indirect paths...

Hi All,
if one launches an image via a path that includes .., e.g. you're in a
directory foo, a sibling of image, and you launch via squeak
../image/myimage.image, then when you open the FileList the current
directory won't be selected because the image path is ~me/foo/../image and
the FileList includes ~me/image but this doesn't match the image
path/current directory, and so isn't selected.
FileUrl includes the code for canonicalizing paths, e.g.
(Url absoluteFromFileNameOrUrlString: '../Squeak5.1/foo') pathForFile
'/Users/eliot/Squeak/Squeak5.1/foo'
Anyone see bad consequences if the initialization of the current directory
in the FileList were to use the above method? i.e. does this work on
Windows with drive letters and/or drive names?
_,,,^..^,,,_
best, Eliot
