~/ not working on mac #60

Closed pimentel closed 8 years ago

pimentel commented 8 years ago

I am on atom 1.0.19 on os x Yosemite.

When I open the dialogue (cmd-alt-o) and enter ~/ there are no files listed. If I manually enter a path, (e.g. ~/.atom) no files are still listed. I have tried setting the default directory to all the different options (current working directory, no directory) and I get the same result. I can see the directory if I give the full path (e.g. /Users/hjp/.atom).

Please let me know if there is any additional information I can give to help.

Thanks for the hard work. It is a very cool package

I'll need a bit more time to confirm, but my initial guess is that the functions we use for reading directories don't auto-convert ~ into the home directory. I imagine we haven't heard of this bug before since people enable the fast directory switching shortcuts, which will automatically convert the ~.

For now you can enable that setting and it should work well enough for your purposes. In the long run I think it's probably good for us to support ~ and .. without the setting on (and just have them work without replacing them), but I'll have to think on it some more.

Thanks for the report!
