Description Elton Woo 2003-11-30 07:25:14 UTC
When saving to a directory, pan does not provide the backslash after the
directory name. A subsequent "save to" a different directory, necessitates
appending the slash after the previous directory name, otherwise the user 
cannot properly navigate the ~/News/Pan directory structure.

e.g. 
1) Save 1st attachment to ~/News/Pan/kittens/ <--note the trailing slash.
2) Now wish to save the *next attachment* to a different subdirectory.
However, when I select "save attachment as" the dialog window shows
"~/News/Pan/kittens", *instead of "~/News/Pan/kittens/ . 
The user either has to add the trailing slash, *or* remove the last
(i.e. most recent) subdirectory name, in order to properly navigate the
Pan subdirectories.

This bug is consistent and reproducible.

what do you mean by "in order to properly navigate the Pan
subdirectories"?  I don't understand what the inconvenience is.
