ok, I call them 'psuedo-NMR files' but six of one, half dozen the other.

...although there may be other folks routinely building such things, too. ;-)

I believe this command is no longer viable.  Chime automatically detects
multiple-model files and loads all of the models without using a separate
mime.  RasMol 2.7 and later does this as well.

not generically, no.

yes, you can:

   select (model=1,model=2,model=3)
   wireframe 0.3
