Yes, I tried this ( Jmol -ionxs myscript.spt molecule.pdb), and I receive
the following list of errors:

This script works when I invoke it from an open Jmol application and a
molecule is loaded. It is suggsted on the Jmol Interactive Script
Documentation Page, http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/?ver=11.8#functions
(See x= script("..."))
I think I came across this on the Jmol-users list, too, somewhere.
I was surprised to find that while
z =script("show measurements")
puts a nice string of measurements into z,
z = script("measure (atomno=10) (atomno=15)")
puts nothing into z.
Perhaps it is a mismatch of data types?

Perhaps the errors the Mac offers (above) will provide a hint. Thank you
for your ideas and suggestions.
