Is there any way to configure the Home function so that the only thing it handles is the location?

As it is, I'll set a directory as the Home, and as I continue working, I end up reconfiguring the columns and column widths to better suit me. But as soon as I go to Home, those changes are lost. At that point, I have to change everything all over again and then reset the Home location so that it doesn't happen the next time I go to the Home directory.


While some people might find it handy to have all those other options reset as well, I'm hoping that there's a way to disable those extra parameters so that the only thing being set is the current directory. Is this possible?

No, but you can define Home again (after you went there by foot) with the new settings (= overwrite the old home definitions).

That's what I have been doing thus far. I was simply wondering if I was doing this needlessly.

I admit that I'm curious whether other people deliberately use the additional parameters, or if they also use the Home function solely for the location.
