		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Creating PYMOL_PATH page&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;The '''PYMOL_PATH''' environmental variable points to the root PyMOL directory. It contains internal PyMol code and core modules. It is also the location for plugins installed via the [[Plugin Manager]]. The variable should be set automatically by PyMOL, and should not normally need to be changed by the user.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Standard Locations =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Windows:''' &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;C:\Program Files\PyMOL\&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Mac:''' &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;/Applications/MacPyMOL.app/pymol&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Ubuntu''' (Open-source PyMOL): &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pymol&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Determining the location =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For other operating systems or non-standard installation locations, the PYMOL_PATH can be determined by running the following command from within PyMOL:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 print os.environ['PYMOL_PATH']&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Contents =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The contents of PYTHON_PATH should generally not be modified, but a few locations can be useful to know:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''&amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;PYMOL_PATH/examples/&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;''' Example PyMOL and Python scripts&lt;br /&gt;
* '''&amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;PYMOL_PATH/modules/pmg_tk/startup/&lt;br /&gt;
* '''&amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;PYMOL_PATH/run_on_startup.py&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;''' A python script run at startup, before &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;.pymolrc&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;. See [[Plugin Manager]] for details.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
