PathNames - set path namesSYNOPSIS
PathNames string string stringDESCRIPTION
Set path names for some configuration files. Normally the program reads these file from the directory $MOLMOLHOME/setup.
The following is a list of all configuration files:
PropDef: Contains definitons of standard
properties.
MenuDir: Directory that contains menu definition
files (MenuBar, *.menu, Popup, Valuator).
ColorList: List of colors used for DialColor.
Generally the configuration files are read when
they are used the first time, and the contents is
kept in memory. This means that changing the path
only has an effect after leaving the program and
starting it again. This is always true for MenuDir.
It is also necessary for ColorList if the color
dialog (DialColor) was opened and for PropDef as
soon as a spectrum was loaded.
If the file with the given path name cannot be openend, the program will silently fall back to the default file.
The special name "0" can be given for path names, in this case an empty file will be taken for the corresponding configuration file.
