Hi Matt, There is limited control over where the main File->Open dialog starts. The two options are: the directory you last used (even from the previous session) and the current working directory. This choice is controlled by the “Open dialog starts in directory from last session” option in the General preferences category. —Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab

Starting chimera without a session file, I would like to use the open pulldown menu.
The default directory is at root "/".
If I use a 'cd somedirectory' command and open with the gui, it still defaults to the root.
Is there a command that will set the open/save directory for the gui? If not, a way in python?
