I have a PyMOL script that will allow you to build a peptide of arbitrary
sequence with specified phi/psi angles for each amino acid using a file as
input. See build_seq_phi_psi.py at:

http://pldserver1.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/pymol/

It also calls another python script of mine for converting sequence formats
http://pldserver1.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/scripts/seq_convert.py
but the simple function in there could have been included directly in the
first script.

There is another one on the PyMOL Wiki:
http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/CreateSecondaryStructure 

Cheers,
Rob
