It's likely somewhere in the wxPython API, around wx.FileDialog, cf. ll.352,357 in sas/sasgui/guiframe/gui_manager.py https://docs.wxpython.org/wx.FileDialog.html#wx.FileDialog We probably want to set defaultDir to os.path.expanduser("~") in the constructor. Extra marks for not doing that if a "recent dir" is available instead, e.g check dlg.GetDirectory() and only SetDirectory expanduser("~") if it's empty.
