Hi,

the value of default-directory has a number of implicit effects.
Therefore, it would be good, if the elisp manual would
explicitly state the value that default-directory has in process
filters and process sentinels. From the behavior I see, it seems
it gets the value from the working directory of the process. Is
this right?

Thanks,

Hendrik
