In kde1.x, I created a mime type for GNUplot files such that when I
click on a
*.gnu file file manager execute the command gnuplot -persist %f in the
relevent directory. However with konquror 1.9.0, KDE tries to execute
the
command without cd in to the directory(appaently from home).

To further explain my situation, I  add a one typical line from my
gnuplot file
----begin line ----
plot 'lee7-bp.j2di2d.xl' using 1:3 t "average" \
with lines,'lee7-bp.j2di2d.xl' using 1:4 t "intact",\
'lee7-bp.j2di2d.xl' using 1:5 t "critical"
---end line----
So when I click on this file it(gnuplot) reports about missing files
"lee7-bp.j2di2d.xl"


When I copied the file "lee7-bp.j2di2d.xl" to home directory,
the plot came up as usual.

Based on my observations, I think that  konqueror doesn't cd to
the relevent directory before parsing the gnuplot file through
the command "gnuplot -persist anyfile.gnu"

Previously, I have observed the same problem in Kruiser not kfm

I will be perfectly happy to assist you if you ever need.
