Hi Cam,

I've been playing around with this and it looks like we have a 
problem.  It appears to depend on what version (or update) of OS X 
you're using.  It's all about how you launch your project(s).  You 
can double click a project in the finder, drag and drop the file to 
the application's icon, open it from the Welcome Screen or select 
Open Project from under the File menu.  Try each of these methods 
followed by typing,  "show currentdir" in the CC.  Chances are 
currentdir will either display: \ (root directory) or the correct 
path and folder you're looking for.  On the different machines and 
OS's that I tested this on,  it always worked (I get the correct 
path) when I open from under the File menu.

Difficult problem to fix because what may work for one flavor of the 
OS, won't work on another.

I'll keep you up to date on the issue.

Let me know how it goes.
