KDevelop default open path  
Written by carpii the 3 Dec 08 at 11:55. New
You can set a default file path when opening new files in KDevelop.

This is ok, but typically if you have a file open, lets say in $HOME/dev then the next file you open is likely to be from there too.

Id like an checkbox option to say 'Default to current directory' for Open File Dialog

KDevelop keys - help migration for Windows developers  
Written by carpii the 3 Dec 08 at 11:59. New
When developing in Windows, its universal that ALT + F followed by S will save the current file.

KDevelop attempts to provide some support for this, however, if you are quite quick on the keyboard, the shortcut doesnt take effect properly.

In the end youre left with the input focus somewhere in the menus, and your file hasnt been saved. You then have to use the mouse to get the focus back to your document.

It sounds pretty trivial, but for me its the single most frustrating thing about KDevelop. Im trying to get used to its shortcuts, but after 20 years developing on Windows, it could be made easier.

You can reassign shortcuts in KDevelop, but you cant assign ALT + F, S to Save
