open command line arg as file

Yes, this sounds very useful.

on "Open File" start in current directory (where I started typstwriter)

Since a42d1747bd943888f9129025bf7cd8e9aeb287fd the "Open File" dialog starts at the typstwriter internal working directory which is a behavior I think I would like to keep since it could be quite confusing if one navigates to a different directory inside the application but "Open File" still uses the original directory.

It is worth a thought to set the working directory to the current directory where typstwriter was started in however. There is a potential conflict with the working_directory config entry tough so we could either only set the working directory to the cli current directory if the working_directory config entry is not set or use a cli flag.

Yes if working_directory is undefined would be enough. And if I can open via command line it's also fine. And if it could remember the recent files, but I get:

util.py              read                       line 108 : Could not read file '/home/XXX/.config/typstwriter/recentFiles.txt'.
...
util.py              write                      line 117 : Could not write file '/home/XXX/.config/typstwriter/recentFiles.txt'

The directory is not created.

Thanks a lot for reporting this bug, it should now be resolved by #31.
