gFTP, when started from the "Main Menu", opens with my home directory on the local side.

When started from USP, it opens with the root (/) directory on the local side.

In the original menu, the command says ``` gftp %u


If I add the %u to the USP execution string, gFTP opens, but asks for a username, and still reverts to /

I'm not sure what's going on here, but I suspect it could have something to do with the "current folder" as far as USP is concerned. 

Anyone else notice anything similar?

Or maybe I'm going crazy. :sad:

What version of USP are you running? This problem was fixed in 0.33

I have gFTP installed and when it is opened from USP (0.33) it opens in my home directory...

Yup, upgraded to 0.33 and now it works as expected. Excellent dude.

What caused it though?

Previously USP caused all applications to be launched at / Now the user directory is the base before any applications are launched..
