README mentions that filenames are resolved relative to the server's CWD (current working directory) - rather than to the client's.

While it's technically possible to intrusively determine working path of a foreign process (with tools like readlink /proc/$PID/cwd, or proceexp.exe on Windows) — these methods are rarely userfriendly and mostly inconvenient for regular use (though excellent for troubleshooting/debug).

So, this addition can be very useful to simplify hdevtools setup and plugin integration, especially on Windows.

Thanks for the port, too!

I generally prefer to avoid Windows for development work, but sometimes there's no other choice (or it's just too hard). Frankly, your work has been useful and I admit that.

By the way, any plans on merging this into bitc/hdevtools, at least as a windows-port branch?
I think I can prepare a PR easily.
