4.2.1 Setting up a Project Directory
PmagPy uses a number of default file names. While these can be customized by the expert user, it is preferable to keep the MagIC files for a each paleomagnetic study in separate directories. For each study, create a directory with a name that relates to that study. Here we will call it ThisProject. This directory should have NO SPACES in the name and be placed on the hard drive in a place that has NO spaces in the path. Under Windows, this means you should not use your home directory, but create a directory called for example: D:\MyPmagProjects and place ThisProject in that directory.
Inside ThisProject, create two additional directories: MyFiles and MagIC. All the files that you want to import into the MagIC format should be placed in MyFiles and you should just leave MagIC alone unless you really know what you are doing.
