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. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sylvian <mailto:skahane@bgumail.bgu.ac.il> Kahane To: roottalk@pcroot.cern.ch Sent: Sunday, July 06, 2003 3:54 AM 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.
