[COOT] command line and customized options (bug/feature?)

2010-04-06 Thread Ed Pozharski
It appears that when loading model/map from command line (via --pdb and
--auto options) coot ignores the parameters defined in $HOME/.coot .
Mine has the (set-map-sampling-rate 2.5) setting for smoother maps, but
when I use the command line to load pdb/mtz files, the maps look more
like sampling rate 1.5 .  

Workaround is to open coot from command line, then close it, and then
reopen it and accept the dialog that loads from last coot state file.
Maps are smooth again.  Of course, one can also load a script at the
start that fixes the sampling rate.  I am just saying that the expected
behavior would be to import $HOME/.coot even if there are parameters in
the command line.  Or is it a feature?

I second Ed's expectations. 

I would like to see the pdb's I open with the --pdb option to have the bond 
width I prefer. Changing it from the Edit Menu is often one of my first actions 
when I open coot with command-line options.


Best,


Miguel

I agree that it should work this way round.
