write file to specified path

[mika-long]

Currently, create_md_file() only allows us to write to the current folder where the python script is in.

Is there anyway to add additional functionality by allowing the user to pass in a path in maybe another folder? And have the output directed to that path instead.

Thx.

Welp this was a really dumb question since I think one can change the filename to make things work.
Sorry about the trouble!

@mika-long I tried sepcifying path to file name like
mdFile = MdUtils(file_name='../docs/src/guide/courses/ray_optics.md',title='Ray Optics')
but this throws error
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '../docs/src/guide/courses/ray_optics.md'

No worries I found a way:

dirname = os.path.dirname(__file__)
filename = os.path.join(dirname, '../docs/src/guide/courses/ray-optics.md')

mdFile = MdUtils(file_name=filename)
mdFile.create_md_file()
