Hi <@U016EM8L91B> <@U02G0CLTGTH>, I've found that after doing simulations and storing the results, the `root` entry is not stored with the same value that it's on the original .txt.

In my case, the original value was `root=..`, and the *_results.txt was stored with `root=.`

That's actually by design, as CACE sets its own cwd to the root directory and runs everything from there, so it always becomes `.`.  However, it is probably not a good idea for it to write that value to the output file, and it should put the original one back.  That seems like something that has a workaround for now so I don't have to treat it as an emergency. . .

(What it needs to be doing is not writing the original value back, but determining where the original root directory is relative to where the output file is being written, so that it can always recover the same root directory no matter where it reads the annotated file from.)

That makes sense, the root value should be relative to the directory were the result file is stored.
For now it's not so relevant, thanks Tim
