Katy, In Artemis, Go to Edit Preferences --> general--> remember_cwd and check "Value remember_cwd" (default is unchecked). In Athena go to Settings (top right) and then the same. Please let us know how the piano lessons are progressing, Anatoly -----Original Message----- From: ifeffit-bounces@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov [mailto:ifeffit-bounces@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov]On Behalf Of Katy Evans Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2007 10:17 PM To: ifeffit@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov Subject: [Ifeffit] setting root for artemis and athena This may be really simple but I haven't managed to work out how to do it or find it in the instructions. Is there a way to tell Artemis or Athena where to start when you go to open or save a file? If I were to add up the time I spend clicking up through the directories then I suspect I would discover that it would be sufficient for me to learn to play the piano or similar. Maybe.
