Opening a directory should change the working directory to that specified directory

Actually, if we want to later support opening projects, we should be able to open directories and set our working directory to that.

How about if opening a directory on the command line goes directly into the Open (for that directory) in ci_edit

Yeah that could work. I was thinking if we were to open a folder, it would count as opening a project. Then we could have a smart open feature, where it will recursively look through all subdirectories and index the files, so that if you search for a file, it will search for it in all directories. That way, you don't have to remember that file x has a path of a/b/c/d/x.

Although it might not be too clear that you can actually create a new file from that "Open" window, since people are probably used to using a shortcut like CTRL_N or something to create a new file.
