GVIM: Set working directory the same of the current file

[Francisco M. Marzoa Alonso]

Hello,

Is there any manner to do that GVIM's current directory will be the same
of the file being edited?

I mean that if I'm editing /var/www/myhost/web/index.php and if I try to
open a new file, it should shows /var/www/myhost/web instead of my
user's directory.

Thanks a lot in advance,

This page describes one way to quickly open files in the same
directory as the current file:
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Easy_edit_of_files_in_the_same_directory

[sc]

the most common way to do this is to set autochdir in your
.vimrc -- see

:h 'autochdir'

Or this, more to the point:
