Hello all: There are times when I want to explore data produced inside my local galaxy site without using galaxy tools. For example, I may want to run a custom script or even just a grep type function from the command line on a couple CuffDiff output files to get an idea of whats inside. This requires a way to get the absolute path to that dataset as it lives in galaxy's internal structure. The only way that I have found to do this is to place this dataset in the shared_data/data_libraries and then view this dataset's info as admin. This is not practical for the types of things I want to do (simple one-off old-school command line investigations on arbitrary files). Is there a way for me to add this info to the standard "view info" page format of datasets so that I can do this sort of thing easily? Mind you, I am not planning to alter the data in galaxy, just look at it and sometimes dump a summary table to a folder outside of galaxy's domain. Thanks, Gus -- In science, "fact" can only mean "confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent." I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms. *-Stephen Jay Gould*
