Dealing with images in multidirectory environment

[damianavila]

I am playing with this and I found this behaviour:

My directory have the following structure:
/Desarrollos
---/damian_blog
---/pyconar2013_talks
---/etc...

I started the notebook in Desarrollos using: ipython notebook pyconar2013_talks/IPython_fu_talk.ipynb

Then if I load an image in markdown cell, <img src="figs/logo.png" /> the files prepend is no longer necessary, which is great...

But if I try to load the image in a code cell,

from IPython.display import Image
Image(filename='pyconar2013_talks/figs/logo.png')

I have to preppend with the pyconar2013_talks to make it render in the code cell... and if a preppend the src in the markdown cell <img src="pyconar2013_talks/figs/logo.png" />, it is not rendered...

This is the intended behaviour? Because we have a lack of consistency? Or a I missing something?

Apparently the cwd of the kernel is the cwd of where the server start.
I don't think that was our plan.

Right, that is what I was thinking. The cwd of the kernel should match the
location of the notebook.
