Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Christopher King (popnose) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Use relative address in state files Initial Comment: On one computer, a file, 1edn.pdb, was opened. The state was saved as 1edn.spt in the same directory as 1edn.pdb. Both files were transferred to the same directory on another computer. On that computer, the state file gave an error because the directory structure was different than on the original computer. Can the state file be changed to use a relative address for the original file? Then, I could transfer state files from office to classroom and not have to worry as much about having the same directory structure. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Bob Hanson (hansonr) Date: 2009-08-24 12:00 Message: quick work-arounds --- 1) save files on a flash drive, and check that both machines assign the same drive letter to the drive 2) save files on the web. 3) edit the spt files to remove the C:/xxx/xxx/ part of the file directory. 4) write a small script that first reads the script file into a variable using the load() function, makes the character replacements using replace(), then runs the script using the script() function rather than the script command. 5) load pdb files using the "=" default RCSB prefix. (load =1edn) This may be a bit slower, but it ensures getting the same file at least. I know -- not totally satisfying. But any of these might work. The problem is figuring out how to specify the correct working directory, and whether that change should be in the state file or in the reading of it.
