Eric, PyMOL will source startup files in your home directory -- just put your commands in there:
On Mac/Unix: $HOME/.pymolrc (for PyMOL commands) $HOME/.pymolrc.py (for Python code) On Windows: %HOMEPATH%\pymolrc (for PyMOL commands) %HOMEPATH%\pymorc.py (for Python code) To show distances, use the distance wizard: wizard distance then ctrl-middle-clock on two atoms in succession.
