Is there a way to achieve the same thing purely through runtime configuration? If not, perhaps just a minimum of extension can be done to make that possible in a more OS-agnostic way. Assigning a key to perform RC_CHDIR on a string acquired from an external command which can be fed the PID of the foreground window's process through a configurable format string is the kind of thing I'm imagining. Then in my use case I'd just do the linux-specific assume-no-subshells /proc-based introspection in the external command referenced in my config. If this is already possible, please let me know, thanks. Regards, Vito Caputo
