           Summary: Kile should use relative paths for files belonging to
                    projects
           Product: kile
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist

Version:           1.8 (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I think that the path to the files belonging to a project should be relative to the \
project path (the path of the *.kilepr file).

I have had some serious problem due to the use of absolute paths. I usually pickup \
some done reports when I want to start a new one, so I can use part of the \
work/structure already done. If I'm not carefull, I'm working in a new project, in a \
new folder, but the files of this new project are the old ones, so I'm tampering with \
the a previous report and not the new one!!!

Besides, using relative paths allows to move the project between folders without any \
problems.  Also, when I wan to add a file to the project, if starts the "Open File" \
dialog in my home page!? Shouldn't it start in the project page? And then it would \
only have to store the relative path of he file.

Just my wish. I'm sure others have had similar experiences.

Nevertheless, congratulations for the kile project.
