AS A USER, WHAT DO YOU WANT?
a) Do you implement callbacks? If so, which ones?
I only use pickCallback to monitor user picking and messageCallback to
evaluate current orientation.
b) What WOULD you use if you had it available?
the monitor/measure command, especially if there is no need for atom
numbers but select expressions could be used
the show selected command to evaluate current selection
c) What sort of information (exactly) are you looking for?
depends on the status of set picking, in most cases
set picking atom
show orientation
show center
RasMol>show selected group
RasMol>set picking distance
d) Is there a particular format that you would like to see,
other than just the current text-stream of messages?
I like the ready to use command line like output, e.g.
picking should result in a ready to use select expression
[LYS]54.CD #798
is OK, it isn't difficult to filter e.g. [LYS]54.CD from this.
$ show orientation
moveto 1 -1000 0 0 180.0;
OR
reset; rotate z 180.0; rotate y 180.0;
RasMol>show selected group
should result in a select expression
e) Is it important to you that this mechanism be backward
compatible?
As long as the information is still accessible, no.
MORE SPECIFC QUESTION:
1. There are currently four callbacks:
animFrameCallback
loadStructCallback
pickCallback
select expression
messageCallback
moveto
select expression
distance/angle measurement data
Each of these fulfills an obvious need.
Should there be more "callback-like" options?
If so, what?
picking
ident|position|measure
status
orientation
center
structure
bound
selection
group|atom
measure
distance|angle|torsion|phipsi

nice,
