New project default location

Open flbulgarelli opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

When you create a new project, its location is, by default, the wollok installation directory, which is not the same as the user directory.

This may led to students not easily finding their code. I know, it is better that Pharo that doesn't even prompt you where to file-out your code, but..., is it possible to disable such default or use the user home as default directory?

I also do not like how it works currently. Still, I am not sure what should be the right behavior. Think that wollok is frequently used in a machine the student does not own, because it is from the laboratory in some university, so you are restricted to some rules the lab or university imposes to the usage of the machine storabe.

I believe as a workaround that we may add an explanation in wollok-site about how to change the workspace. I would not do anything else.
