  • Create Directories Required by NeXtMidas:
    Home Directories
    This is the directory used as the user's home directory (on Unix this is typically /home/user/). Note that the default ones used by Windows have spaces in the path names, this is NOT allowed.
    User Data Directory
    This is the directory used, by default, to store the user's data files.
    Typically all user directories are located under c:\midas\, a user Smith would have c:\midas\smith\.
    The location of the user data directories can be changed by editing the nmstartup.mm file.
