You could of course open the Java console to see the errors (right click the coffee-cup in the task bar), but I agree that echoing errors to the applet window (and perhaps warnings to the jmol console) would be useful. Tracing error behaviour is not a big problem for the script writer. But what about some-one else using the script for a structure file that the script writer has not tested ? My personal opinion is that Jmol should try to skip the problem command, write an error to the jmol window, but then continue with the remaining script commands and display something even if it is "wrong". I had this problem recently with underscores and _eof in foreign CIF files. Bob, efficient as ever, quickly corrected that. For these files my script just hung and displayed a blank Jmol window, and a naive user would have no clue as to where to look for the problem in his CIF file.
