David, not to be critical, but why not just use the Jmol applet itself with
real-time scripting, etc. on your site or in your powerpoint? Why go to all this
work making a .mov or .avi file? It will be far smoother.
Not that this suggestion isn't a bad idea, but it would be strictly a function
of the app, not applet, and in general I find for small jobs a simple "screen
snapper" like MSsnap, which can quickly take reproducible snapshots of any small
area of the screen does the trick.

OK, sorry to be dense, but is it possible to script the image export? As
I said I want to use a script like I have done on rasmol to create a
series of images which I can then open in Quicktime Pro, which will
convert them to a movie i can show on the web or in a powerpoint
presentation.
In rasmol the script is of the sort:
rotate x 2
refresh
save gif 01.gif
rotate x 2
refresh
save gif 02.gif
In Jmol using the scripting window the rotate and refresh commands etc
work, but if I type:
save png 01.png
I get a message "script command not implemented: save"
This sounds as if 'save' is recognized as a command (although I cannot
find documentation on this in the Help) but the syntax is wrong.

PS Pov-ray is a non-starter in this context, and probably most other
contexts for mainstream users. I'd never heard of it, and when I looked
at the page of settings I shuddered and closed it quickly.
