20. Configuration

All configuration files are stored in the subdirectory setup of the MOLMOL installation directory. The system admistrator can make site specific changes in these files.

With the PathNames command, each user can select files different from the default ones. For doing this, it is recommended to copy the default file to a place in the home directory and make the desired changes.

The following is a list of configuration files:

name	description
`MenuBar`	names and mnemonics of all pulldown menus
`*.menu`	entries of all pulldown menus
`Popup`	entries in the popup menu
`Buttons`	definition of buttons
`Valuator`	entries in the valuator box
`amber94.lib`	residue library
`PdbAtoms`	translation table for PDB atom names
`AtomRadius`	data for the commands `MakeBonds` and `CheckBonds`
AtomCharge	charges referenced in expressions by `simplecharge`
`FlipAtoms`	data for the command `FlipAtom`
`RingShift`	data for the command `CalcShift`
`PropDef`	predefined properties
`ColorList`	list of colors for color dialog

If there is a macro with the name startup.mac in the subdirectory molmol of the home directory of the user, it is automatically executed when the program is started up.
