def open_config_folder():
"""Calling this function opens the pydna configuration folder in
the default file manager. The location for this folder is stored
in the *pydna_config_dir* environmental variable.
The `pydna.ini` file can be edited to make pydna quicker to use.
See the documentation of the :class:configparser.ConfigParser´ class.
Below is the content of a typical `pydna.ini` file on a Linux
system.

The email address is set to [email protected] by default. If you change this
to you own address, the :func:`pydna.genbank.genbank` function can be used
to download sequences from Genbank directly without having to explicitly add
the email address.
Pydna can cache results from the following functions or methods:
- :func:`pydna.genbank.Genbank.nucleotide` Genbank_nucleotide
- :func:`pydna.amplify.Anneal` amplify_Anneal
- :func:`pydna.assembly.Assembly` assembly_Assembly
- :func:`pydna.download.download_text` download.download_text
- :func:`pydna.dseqrecord.Dseqrecord.synced` Dseqrecord_synced
These can be added separated by a comma to the cached_funcs entry in **pydna.ini**
file or the pydna_cached_funcs environment variable.
