I am using tk_getOpenFile to grab a file name.  I am
using variables to define the -filetypes, -title, and
-initialdir.  These all work, except -initialdir,
which goes to the pwd no matter what the contents of
the variable.  From there one can navigate and get to
any directory just fine.  

For -initialdir I have tried absolute posix paths,
absolute windows paths, relative pathes of both kinds,
but the only things that will work are ./ and ../  Is
this related to the posix path problems that have been
discussed elsewhere on this list?  Is there a
workaround?

cygwin dll 1.3.2-1
cygwish80  8.0.4
xfree86    4.0.3

thanks,
Mike Henninger
