hello,
I'm running MacPyMol 0.99. I typically open pymol from the terminal (
terminal.app) using the "open" command.
> open test.pdb
I have .pdb files set to open with MacPyMol, so graphicConverter doesn't
open when I do this. The problem I have when doing this is that when
entering the "pwd" command into pymol, I get the following:
PyMOL> pwd
/
so pymol thinks it's running from the root directory. This makes it tough
for me to load more pdbfiles into pymol using the "load" command as I must
first "cd" into the directory with pymol. Just a note, that in version 0.9=
8,
using the "open" command, pymol would recognize what directory it was opene=
d
from.
Now, I can use the "pymol test.pdb" to open pdbfiles, but then the terminal
gets the output from pymol. I've tried to run pymol in the background so
that I can continue to use this terminal window while stilll having pymol
open. Using "pymol test.pdb &" I still get pymol output to the terminal. =
I
could use "pymol test.pdb >& /dev/null &" but that seems quite a bit more
verbose compared to "open test.pdb"
I guess I could alias pymol to essentially pipe it's output to /dev/null bu=
t
since version 0.98 worked fine, I was wondering if anyone has a workaround
for this inconvenience.
Thanks.
