Feature request: Resume from the directory of the previous choice

[jluttine]

Just a thought: Quite often I want to open a file from the same directory I opened a file previously. Would it make sense to add support for such usecase? For instance, when given -file-browser-resume, the file browser would read the previously used directory from its internal cache file and after a file has been chosen, it'll update that directory value.

A possible extension: It would be possible to make it so that one can have multiple "profiles" so that they resume from the previous directory of that particular profile. For instance, if given -file-browser-resume=some-music-player, then it'll start from the directory it previously opened with that exact same option value given. And if given -file-browser-resume=just-some-random-string, it'll continue from the directory that was previously used with that exact option value.

Does this make sense?

I asked something similar in #26, so I second this request.

I've made a hack: See https://github.com/marvinkreis/rofi-file-browser-extended/issues/26#issuecomment-1013735191

I pushed some changes to implement this, see #26.
