The "util" module contains a number of functions that color the atoms according to type, with different colors for the C atoms. For instance, util.cbay three in a .pml script will color object "three" by atom type, with the carbon atoms in yellow ("color by atom yellow"). Other functions from ../modules/pymol/util.py are cbag, cbac, cbas, cbap, cbak, cbaw and cbab (grey (carbon), cyan, salmon, purple, pink, white (hydrogen) and slate). -- Lieven Buts Brussels Free University
