SPARKYHOME setting   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #589 of 615 |
Hi,

I love sparky, but I find it's default directory organization in SPARKYHOME
cumbersome, especially for multiple sets of data. Currently, whenever I load
files, I have to navigate through the system path to the local directories where
I store processed spectra, assignments, etc. This can be a lot of navigating,
and Sparky doesn't always consistently remember the last working directory--so
I'll typically have to navigate repeatedly if I want to open several spectra,
assginments, etc.

Alternatively, I could set SPARKYHOME to the current working directory (CWD,
'.'), but then I'm prompted to create the home directories every time I run
sparky from a new location. Even then, I'm still stuck with extra directories
that I'd need to delete later.

Is there any way to set all three SPARKYHOME directories (Projects, Lists,
Saves) to the CWD so that I don't have to bother with its data store anymore?
I'm comfortable modifying the python source, but I haven't found where this
information may be stored there.

Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick, The way Sparky expects files in directories with fixed names (Save, Projects, ...) is horrible. That was developed in the early 1990s before Python...
