Hi Kenneth, I believe you should be able to use a usercustomize.py which will be loaded just after sitecustomize.py. Also, you can load both a userSetup.mel and a userSetup.py. Mind you, userSetup.py is called later than userSetup.mel and cannot perform all commands that userSetup.mel can perform…
And from python, you can dynamically import other scripts, perhaps based off your machine names… (haven’t tried this myself) import socket moduleNames = [ 'sys', 'os', socket.gethostname() ] modules = map(__import__, moduleNames) By the way, I’ve never gotten around reading up on how the site/usercustomize.py differs from the userSetup.py/mel – and I can’t find any documentation on sitecustomize.py … what’s the main difference? // Fredrik On Mon, Jun 9, 2014 at 9:03 PM, Kenneth Polonski <kpolon...@gmail.com> wrote: Hey everyone, > > So I've recently written a custom menu with some pipeline tools for the > company I work for.
