Thanks, Rolf. I should start a new thread. There are two additional split functions at http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/index.htm?ver=14.2 , as compared to the split function in your link, and these two contain the “true” parameter. However, the documentation is kind of spare about the need and use for “true” in these additional split functions.
I’ll play around with it and start a new thread when I get stuck.

Can you clarify the purpose of “true”, as in: var x = load(“filename”, TRUE) I would like to learn when is it necessary. Your example uses “true” for .png but not for .cif. The help page shows the TRUE flag showing up elsewhere, as in the function x = y.split("", TRUE) I am uncertain of how to use “true" properly. The meaning of "true" as a parameter depends on the specific command/function. You should look up the documentation for the commands/functions you want to use. http://jena3d.fli-leibniz.de/doc/jmol_scripting/index.htm#functions contains for 'x = load("filename",TRUE)': "Adding a second parameter TRUE creates a binary associative array variable x that contains the contents of the file. Data are stored as raw bytes (but will appear as a string in the PRINT command). If the file is a standard file, the key "_DATA_" will hold the file data. If the file is a PNGJ file, the key "_IMAGE_" will hold the image data and additional files will be keyed by file name. If the file is a zip file, the files will be keyed by file name, but no "_IMAGE_" key will be present (presumably). Note that x = load("myfile") without TRUE loads just the file list for PNGJ or ZIP files, not the actual data."
