Thanks, I'll take a look.

Hello,
Just a side note regarding the location of coot’s configuration files.
Better yet would be to follow the XDG Base Directory Specification:
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html
In short, it recommends that you store the coot config directory under
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME if it is set, or under $HOME/.config otherwise (the
specification of course leaves it up to you how you want to organize
the directory structure under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/coot). Most desktop
programs on Linux now seem to follow this convention, and it’s
actually nice to have one’s home directory more cleanly organized.

I tried both ways (coot.py and .coot) and only the latter worked for me.
that should be .coot.py - presumably that's what you meant (but if
not, it would explain why it didn't work)
.coot-preferences is a directory and its contents should not be
edited by the user.
You'd think so, wouldn't you? I made a mistake about this directory
years ago and have regretted it since.
Future Coots will have:
$HOME/.coot/
preferences/ # these are scripts written by Coot
startup-scripts/ # these are scripts that you write
Both .coot and coot.py should reside in the user's home directory.
.coot.py yes.
