Dear Eric,
Thanks for your answer.
Effectively, I get my old commands back! In fact, I launched the
new Chimera version with the ADMIN rights so that I lost the
command trace and also the functions saved in Favorites. If I run
Chimera normally, there is a continuity between the releases.
Thanks again
Damien

Hi Damien,
If
I understand correctly, before upgrading you saved your command
history into a file named chimera.cmd. After upgrading, you
want to get that history back into the new version. Is that
correct? If so, the good news is that you don't have to do
anything like that in order to preserve your command history --
it is preserved automatically. The command history is not saved
in the Chimera installation itself but is saved in the user's
preferences file.
So
just start the new version of Chimera and check the command
history (click on the disclosure triangle to the right of the
command line). If it contains your old commands, you're golden.
If not for some reason (maybe you went to a new machine?) send
me an email and I'll give you instructions for getting your
chimera.cmd commands into the preferences file. It's a little
tricky because the file formats aren't the same.

Dear All,
I just installed the last release for Windows (June 07,
2013).
I would like to get back the command line history I had in
the previous version.
I saved this command line history in a file named
chimera.cmd.
May you tell where to copy chimera.cmd in the
program files of my new Chimera? (I've made a search in
the Windows explorer for chimera.cmd but nothing
was returned)
Thanks,
Damien
