Hello,

TSE: Linux: Is the change directory option working as it should?

Not sure, I tried to change the directory in TSE for Linux version 4.50.16
by clicking in the top left corner on these 3 vertical lines.

Then I tried to change to my directory, 

e.g. /mnt/c/temp/tse_linux/knud/

and then it comes saying that that directory is not found
and the filename in all capitals.

Not sure, but maybe it can be reproduced, if not then it can be ignored again
as again some local issue.

with friendly greetings
Knud van Eeden

Confirmed.  My home directory is /home/guyr.  When I use the menu item you mention, the default target directory is shown as /home/guyr, with the cursor placed after the final "r".  If I simply press the Enter key, the editor responds "Directory "/HOME/GUYR" not found...".  I tried typing in the same target, same capitalized response.  Finally, I tried typing in "/home/guyr" with the double quotes; this time the response was"Directory ""/HOME/GUYR"" not found...", with the double quotes doubled.

Yep, the CD macro, while converted to compile on Linux, was not
converted to work on Linux :(
I will take a look.

FYI but the similar ChDir() works OK thus in Linux WSL, I use that all the time thus at startup.
