Changing Home directory?

Moe

Hello all!

I wanted to ask, if it was possible to launch Pythonista in a selected folder to use as 'home'. The thing is that I have quite a few folders for data in the root directory and have all my scripts in a subfolder. I would like to start Pythonista so that it shows me that specific subfolder and not the root directory. Does anybody know a way to do this?

The app remembers the last file you had opened and will reopen it when the app is restarted. As a side-effect it will also open the folder in which the file is located. This means that if you exit the app with a script opened that is in your subfolder, that folder will be reopened on restart.

Hm, sometimes it doesnt seem to work for me. On the other hand, I browse the other files quite a lot, so I may have not noticed it. Thanks!
