Hi,
This is probably more a question for Bernhard:
After upgrading to Windows 7 I am no longer able to read in a custom coot.py
located in a startup directory outside of the WinCOOT directory.
The error message is as follows
Coot Python Scripting GUI code found and loaded.
WARNING:: no directory "C" in COOT_PYTHON_EXTRAS_DIR C:\COOT-Startup
WARNING:: no directory "\COOT-Startup" in COOT_PYTHON_EXTRAS_DIR C:\COOT-Startup
INFO:: loading preferences file C:\WinCoot/.coot-preferences/coot_preferences.py
Running python script C:/WinCoot/.coot-preferences/coot_preferences.py
The relevant setting in runwincoot.bat is:
set COOT_PYTHON_EXTRAS_DIR=C:\COOT-Startup
I tried various iterations of C:\\; C://; C::/ to get Python separate the drive
component from the directory component but to no avail. I even placed the
COOT-Startup directory in the WinCOOT folder and used
set COOT_PYTHON_EXTRAS_DIR=%COOT_PREFIX%\COOT-Startup
but still nothing works.
BTW I am using CMD.exe, but it does not work under PowerShell either.
Any insights?
Thanks
Carsten
