-) Create a directory '''$HOME/.pymol/pymolplugins''', this will be your personal plugin directory. Copy plugins here instead of using the "Plugin > Manage Plugins > Install..." menu.

-) Create a file '''$HOME/.pymol/pymolplugins/__init__.py''' with the folling content:
-<source lang="python">

-) We need to import '''pymolplugins''' before the GUI launches, so insert into your [[pymolrc|$HOME/.pymolrc]] file:
-<source lang="python">
-python
-import sys, os
-sys.path.append(os.path.expanduser('~/.pymol'))
-import pymolplugins
-python end
