Yes, that's true, and I suppose it's good programming style not to depend on a special working directory. On the other hand I'd like to reduce the amount of command line parameters passed into the script, and I definitely dislike the thought of havin a 'standard' working_dir= keyword in all my scripts just because my debugger needs it. Basically I'm used to being able to set an arbitrary working directory from MS Developer Studio, and I wanted to know before I would contact Mark Hammond directly, if there is anything else than workarounds for this problem.
