If I move my .CCP4 directory out of the way and start ccp4i, it makes a new one: zsh-% ccp4i 22:14:16 Creating a home directory for CCP4 at /Users/wgscott/.CCP4 22:14:16 Creating CCP4i shadow area at /Users/wgscott/.CCP4/CCP4I_TOP 22:14:16 Creating shadow subdirectory /Users/wgscott/.CCP4/CCP4I_TOP/bin 22:14:16 Creating shadow subdirectory /Users/wgscott/.CCP4/CCP4I_TOP/src 22:14:16 Creating shadow subdirectory /Users/wgscott/.CCP4/CCP4I_TOP/etc .... Are you sure it isn't there? What do you get for ls ~/.CCP4 By the way the unix command for making a directory like this is mkdir ~/.CCP4 but the GUI appears to do that automatically. Maybe you are trying to make the thing with the Finder (Apple's file browser)? Best to avoid it for anything unixy. It is a carbon-based relic of pre-osx days.
