Hi folks
The real problem here is that the "imosflm" you run by default after
installing the latest CCP4 is a shell script in $CBIN (i.e. where all
the compiled programs are), which doesn't actually set things up
properly. This has been addressed by the guys in Daresbury and the fix
will appear in the next release (after which you should be able to
ignore the rest of this message).
If, on the other hand, you run the "imosflm" in the directory $CCP4/
ccp4i/imosflm/src, everything should be hunky-dory - you can do this
by setting your PATH environment variable so it finds this script
first, e.g. in tcsh -
setenv PATH "$CCP4/ccp4i/imosflm/src":$PATH
_after_ doing the normal source'ing ccp4.setup; then "imosflm" on the
command line should work.
The other option would be to install imosflm from our web-pages and
run that, but since this is currently the one that ccp4 distribute
there's no obvious advantage to that, other than removing the ambiguity.

imosflm also takes the command line switch --startdir so you could try
an alias of
alias imosflm='imosflm --startdir $PWD'

You could try something like this (bash/zsh/sh):
alias imosflm='MOSDIR=${PWD} imosflm'
The single quotes are required for it to do the right thing.

Dear MOSFLM/IMOSFLM people,
when I start the new version of imosflm I expect it to dump files and
to search all files starting from the current directory. This doesn't
seem to be the case. It appears it always starts from MOSDIR. I my
imosflm.tcl the line related to STARTDIR is:
set STARTDIR [pwd]
Perhaps somebody else has written about this, but if this is the
case,
I have missed the thread.
Can somebody help me with this?
