[chimerax-users] Change the directory for data fetched from databases

Hello,

The documentation for the open command says "Web-fetched data are stored locally in ~/Downloads/ChimeraX/ (where ~ indicates a user's home directory)". Is there a way to change this directory? I couldn’t find one in the settings window, but maybe a command could do that? (in that case I would simply need to add this command to the startup commands).

The use case I have in mind is to share the ChimeraX cache between all accounts on a multi-user workstation (so, relocate the cache at some place like /data/ChimeraX).

Thank you,

Guillaume
