Hi Sylvian,
 
    Make a file named "rootrc" (without quotes) with all your ROOT
settings,
and then open a command line window, go to the location of the file and
type on the prompt:
    > copy rootrc ".rootrc"
 
(WITH the quotes for the second filename)
[Valeri Fine] 
 
  Which OS are you speaking about? My "W2K" and" XP " do that with no
problem:
 
    > copy test.C .test
 
    That should do it
[Valeri Fine] 
Can you make sure the option "Show hidden files and folder" is set?
 Go to
"My computer" -> "Tools" -> "Folder Options" -> "View" -> "Hidden Files
and Folders"
->"Show hidden files and folders"
 
          Hope it helps, Valeri
 
Stelios.

Subject: [ROOT] .rootrc in windows
 
I have problems in creating a .rootrc file in windows. The OS is
complaining about the dot in the front.  I tried rootrc without the dot
but it made no impression at all on root.
