Bob, I had missed the capability of writing a data file as a zip file (xxx.jmol). I suppose that after doing the compare command on two protein molecules that you could write a xxx.jmol file rather than a xxx.pdb file? When I do this operation, I use 'load' and 'load append' putting the

Karl, the .jmol file is simply a ZIP file. The WRITE command is configured to automatically get the type of file from common extensions -- .GIF, .PNG, .SPT, .WRL, etc., and .JMOL. But it's just a ZIP file. It contains: - a manifest file that tells Jmol which file the autoload script is in. - a

In case that was too cryptic. 0) get the picture you want. 1) create the jvxl file: write xxx.jvxl 2) replace the surface with the jvxl equivalent: isosurface xxx.jvxl 3) create a manifested zip file: write xxx.jmol Then when you load xxx.zip, Jmol should load the file, load the surface, and

Dear Jmol, Is there a way to save Jmol state with the pre-calculated surface? We can save the Jmol state, and render the structure with the same look, orientation, etc. However, if the state contains a surface calculation, the surface is recalculated again on load. On the other side, I can save
