You appear to be mixing syntaxes for the scripting languages. Maybe first make sure you are using pure python...

..and yes, try the Extensions and make sure you have consistent master chains.

B

Dear all,

I am working with a 4-fold NCS. Chain A has residues 273 through 278
pretty messed up, but those residues from Chain B seem to fit pretty
well the density for Chain A (as seem by NCS Ghost Control). Hence I
would to replace residues 273-278 of Chain A by those of Chain B with
appropriate rotation(s)-translation(s).

After looking Coot's manual it seems that I need to use a script (the
GUI would also change Chains C and D which I do not want), namely
copy-residue-range-from-ncs-master-to-chains. From the example I think
that I would need something like:
(copy-residue-range-from-ncs-master-to-chains 0 "B" 273 278 (list "A"))

but since I have a python Coot, I am unsure what to use. I tried without
success* the following:

copy-residue-range-from-ncs-master-to-chains(0,"B",273,278,(list "A"))

copy-residue-range-from-ncs-master-to-chains(0,"B",273,278,"A")

copy-residue-range-from-ncs-master-to-chains(0,"B",273,278,list("A"))

Hence, I would greatly appreciate some advice on the proper syntax for
the command in Python (or on the right/better way of fixing the mess in
Chain A).

Thank you for your time and help.

Regards,
Davi
