As someone who works with Unix/Linux systems for more than ten years I highly appreciate the power of command-line tools (without disregarding that of mouse-driven tools).
Currently we are using rasmol as command-line tool to build our site environment database (a database containing a list of residues inside a specific distance for all active sites named in PDB files from the Protein Data Bank). I have not tried it yet but I guess we could now use Jmol for this instead. Currently we are generating all automatically generated images for our PDB atlas pages (http://www.fli-leibniz.de/IMAGE.html) using rasmol as command-line tool. Most of the currently manually generated images are created already using our Jmol viewer. We would really prefer to use Jmol also for the automatic image generation. Q: Is it already possible or might it be possible in the future to export a script generated view as an image file with Jmol as a command-line tool?
