ra2 seems to change the "current directory"

[wn2000]

The libretro core seems to have done a chdir() somewhere to where the .dsk file is located.
As a result, when I bring up RetroArch's menu, it cannot find its font and everything is displayed in some low quality bitmap font (see screenshot).
Also after saving a game-specific override, the file ended up being saved to /path/to/dsk/file/config/AppleWin/game.opt, so the next time RetroArch starts, it cannot find the override in its default location (/path/to/retroarch/config/AppleWin/).

Expected behavior: I do not expect the "current folder" to change when the core is running.

I agree with you 100%. Unfortunately AppleWin does and I never understood why and if it can be skipped.

I will try to remove it as a special case for libretro and see what happens.
