Dear Angel Herráez,

I've found the answer really helpful but using magic word "jmolscript:" 
as a second line one loose the possibility of multi models in a single 
XYZ file feature which is very useful in analysis of phonon  vibrations. 
And there is no possibility to create supercell with command

load "" {2 2 2}

Anyway I've found there is possible to run script with -s key. So I can 
prepare script which extracts the unitcell vectors from XYZ and run JMOL 
with -s parameter. Thus this question is partly solved for me.

But the Single window mode is still a question.  I'm using OpenBox as a 
window manager and manager is not able to merge console and main window, 
it "thinks" they are separate programs and rising jmol after it was 
minimized restores console but not both main window and console. Running 
JSmol in the browser does not seems acceptable also since I need main 
menu to change distance units and other settings. Thus it seems the only 
way is to put Jmol to separate virtual desktops and loop through them.

Thank you for all the efforts,
Eugene
