Thanks Paul,

I'll give that a try. Is there any similar mechanism to load a global 
initialization file(s) under scheme as there is for Python, e.g. can I define a 
similar directory to COOT_PYTHON_EXTRAS_DIR but just for scheme commands. It 
would make the life of our sysadmins and users a bit easier if some settings 
and macros could be administered centrally through this mechanism.

BTW, coding in scheme gives me the heebie jeebies :-),  any way this little 
misbehavior can be changed in future releases?

Cheers,

        Carsten

Sorry this is confusing.  I think you need to set the path in scheme mode:

I have this in my ~/.coot

(set! *probe-command* 
"/home/paul/molprobity/probe4linux/probe.2.12.071128.linuxi386")
(set! *reduce-command* 
"/home/paul/molprobity/reduce4linux/reduce.3.13.080428.linuxi386")

Paul.
