Hi all,

Does anyone know if there is a (preferably python) scripting function that 
replicates the Measures—>distances and angles—> distance tool? I have looked in 
the manual and couldn’t find it.

I find myself using it very frequently while building to check that contact 
distances, hydrogen bonds etc are sensible, and I would quite like to assign it 
to a toolbar button or hotkey so that it is one click away rather than three.

I realize that the  "environment distances” function covers some of this 
function, and I have a toggle for that bound to “D", but I still often want to 
measure the distance between specific pairs of atoms.

On a unrelated topic, I really like the autocomplete function of the python 
scripting interface in coot, and have used it to find several useful functions 
that do not appear to be documented in the manual. It does however require 
guessing the start of the function name - is there any way to search the list 
of available functions using wildcards - e.g. to find all functions matching 
“*sharpen*”?

Best,
Oliver.
