Command line arguments - relative paths don't work #3

Closed gladstonedigital closed 7 years ago

gladstonedigital commented 7 years ago

Platform: Debian 9 x86_64, kernel 4.9.0-3-amd64 meview version: 1.3.1 amd64

I have a folder of wallpapers: /home/user/Pictures/wallpapers

If I open a file like meview /home/user/Pictures/wallpapers/wall01.jpg it works perfectly fine. However if I do:

cd /home/user/Pictures/wallpapers
meview wall01.jpg

does not work. Neither does meview ./wall01.jpg. In both of these latter two cases, meview opens up but does not display an image. In the case of meview wall01.jpg it displays a gray background with an icon in the upper left indicating the file couldn't be found. In the case of meview ./wall01.jpg it displays a gray background with no icon in the left.

This seems to be an issue with relative vs absolute paths, as absolute paths work fine but relative paths don't seem to work at all.

Workaround is already pushed, but I will wait with a release until I have worked on your other suggestions.
