Hi 

This is a very minor enancement request, is it possible to support ~/ as a reference to a users home directory from within dialogue boxes, for example 

/home/mn/Work/Solaris9

can be refered to as 

~/Work/Solaris9

This is something I automatically do

Thanks 

Mark.

This works in 643C.

BTW - where could the coresponding code be found? I'd like to
implement it for 1.0.2 Czech build to test this behavior so it could
be backported to 1.0.3.

Pavel, the only fix in this are which I am aware of is in revision
1.37 of util/svtools/source/filepicker/iodlg.cxx (I am not sure if
this was the only affected file, but I think so). But this deals only
with the case where you enter "~", not "~/Work/Solaris9" (no paths
after the ~ are recognized).
I am not sure if there have been other fixes in this area ....

This issue is fixed, works perfectly for me in 1.1.3 and in SRC680_m59 build 
too. I can reference my home directory via ~ in the Settings, Open, Save, 
... dialogs.
