Hello,

The g:netrw_keepdir option is, by default (so it can have the same
behavior as the old 6.3 explorer), 1. This means that vim's idea of the
working directory does not follow netrw's current directory.

If you put :let g:netrw_keepdir= 0 in your .vimrc, the pwd will follow
netrw's directory. I know this isn't exactly the same problem as you
mentioned above, but it will mean that :Texplore will open where you
expect. I think that Texplore should follow netrw's directory anyway,
so I'll try to change it so that it opens a tab in the same directory.
