[Chimera-users] Command History

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Joe,
The command history is embedded in the preferences file.  See here for file location:
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/preferences.html#preffile>

However, the default is to save 60 commands only (set in the Preferences category of Preferences dialog opened from Favorites menu).
<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/preferences.html#Command%20Line>

I hope this helps,
Elaine
