The Phenix GUI will modify this file (only if you launch Coot from it) to ensure that Coot can find Probe, which could be causing the problem - I didn't take into account the possibility of a home directory being shared across multiple platforms. Sorry if this is the case. Fortunately, I'm pretty sure I can do this on the fly from Python instead and leave ~/.coot alone. -Nat
