Getting NppExec to understand path of the current file in Notepad++ (for Python scripts)

Using windows for the first time in quite awhile and have picked up note开发者_运维百科pad++ and am using the nppexec plugin to run python scripts. However, I noticed that notepad++ doesn't pick up the directory that my script is saved in. For example, I place "script.py" in 'My Documents' however os.getcwd() prints "Program Files \ Notepad++"

Does anyone know how to change this behavior? Not exactly used to it in Mac.

Notepad++ >nppexec >follow $(current directory)

You could put something like this at the beginning of your script:

import os
os.chdir(os.path.dirname(__file__))
