Hi Folks,

At gam/gam.cfg is it possible to set permanent directories for csv input folder and csv output folder ? 

Often find myself typing long path or have to go into path where csv located

Thank you

gam.cfg drive_folder sets the default folder for csv output files, the default for csv input files is the current working folder.
Let me look into a way to have the input files come from drive_folder.

Sorry, it's drive_dir, not drive_folder.

Get 7.30.00

Added input_dir directory variable to gam.cfg that is used to select a directory for reading files with non-absolute file names.
The default is an empty string that matches the current behavior where these files are read from the current working directory.
This will be most useful in multiple domain situations where each domain will have distinct drive_dir and input_dirvalues.

Ross,
I have GAM 7.30 and no input_dir value. Should I add it manually?

$ gam

You can do: gam config save
This will add the default value to gam.cfg.
