I don't think GPRename ever remembered your last directory
after you closed the program. And if it did, that would be
wrong. If I'm in /usr and I call gprename, close it, go into
/usr/local and call gprename again, I want it to open in
/usr/local and not /usr. So remembering the last directory
wouldn't be a good thing.

For the field 'Work path' in the KMenu, I'm unfortunately not
familiar with it as I'm running Gnome, but you would have more chances
to just modify the field Command from 'gprename' to 'gprename /my/directory',
so that, when using the menu of KDE, it will always open at a
specific directory.

The URL http://gprename.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gprename
is for viewing on the web the SVN repositery, like in Firefox,
but it's not for checkout

To get a local copy on your computer, the URL is still the same
which can be found under the Code tab on the gprename webpage on
sourceforge and it's the one you had in your history buffer:
svn co https://gprename.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gprename gprename
