how does wxWidget app keep track of the last opended dir

[Riccardo Cohen]

I suppose there is something like registers on windows. In our app, we 
decided to wrap wxFileSelector/wxFileDialog with a class art_file_tool.

First because we wanted to specify the current path depending of the 
user action (ie:file open has a memorized directory, and file sale may 
have another), and this behavior had to be portable, but also because we 
wanted the file selector to memorize the extension used (file type)
