Changes current working directory in Genomic Database

Changes current working directory in Genomic Database.

gdir.cd(dir = NULL)

Arguments

dir

directory path

Value

None.

Details

This function changes the current working directory in Genomic Database (not to be confused with shell's current working directory). The list of database objects - tracks, intervals, track variables - is rescanned recursively under 'dir'. Object names are updated with the respect to the new current working directory. Example: a track named 'subdir.dense' will be referred as 'dense' once current working directory is set to 'subdir'. All virtual tracks are removed.
