I just looked through the Perseus manual and all the program's configuration settings, and there's no mention of any way to specify the default directory - my experience is as Chuck mentions, it always defaults to the last directory used.
I perused the system registry to see where Perseus stores the last used location (since that's where Perseus says it stores all its settings) but I cannot find an entry anywhere for it. It's not in the tree HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microtelecom s.r.l./perseus with all the other program settings. This begs the question of exactly where does the program store that information between runs? There is a log file named perseuslf that appears to get created in the same directory as perseus.exe when starting the program, but that doesn't contain any file location information. If you could find out where the program stores this information, you might be able to manually change it, Brett On Sat, Jan 24, 2015 at 5:37 PM, Chuck Hutton <[email protected]> wrote: > Not exactly.
