Hi Shivu, the directory is ~/.coot-preferences - the "." is not a typo, and the "~" signifies your home directory.
The "." prefix means that this directory is hidden, so you won't see it in Finder, but you can copy files to it in the terminal. So if you have downloaded oli_custom.py to your Downloads directory, you can copy it to the correct location by executing the following command from the terminal: cp ~/Downloads/oli_custom.py ~/.coot-preferences/ That should do the trick. Then load up Coot and you should have an extra menu with additional functions. I would suggest downloading the latest nightly from Bill Scott's page (http://scottlab.ucsc.edu/~wgscott/xtal/wiki/index.php/Stand-alone_Coot_for_10.10), as some of the key bindings etc I have in there may not work with older versions of Coot. Cheers, Oliver.
