from the command line pass the -s (or --script) parameter I have a script file called 'yellow.txt' that contains one line color atoms yellow On unix, in the same directory as jmol, I type the following: ./jmol --script yellow.txt samples/xyz/caffeine.xyz > I looked at > http://jmol.sourceforge.net/docs/JmolUserGuide/ch02.html > which is the same as what I found in the Help menu > but to no avail.

Make sure that your path is correct. If you just say 'intro4_3.spt' then it should be in the current directory. > but nothing seems to work.
