Details:

First, using fltk in either GUI or CLI:
if you click on the figure box
file -> save or save as (both behave the same way -- is this
intended??) you get a dialog box which shows under "look in"
the directory just ABOVE the current directory and in the box
for "filename" it shows the name of the current directory. If you
accept these defaults the plot is written to the directory above
the current one with the name "current_dir".pdf.  This does not seem to be a
helpful default setting. And, I could not find a way
to cause the directory to be changed to the current directory.

Changes in this area should be coordinated with qt GUI options.
