A simple rainbow uses colors "o107" through "o893".

It would take some Python loop programming, but the easiest way to get the
effect would be to read the colors using cmd.get_color_tuple, setting them
to new colors using cmd.set_color, and then issuing a recolor command before
rendering.

PyMOL>print cmd.get_color_tuple("o107")
(0.0020005344413220882, 0.0, 1.0)
PyMOL>cmd.set_color("o107",[1,1,1])
 Color: "o107" defined as [ 1.000, 1.000, 1.000 ].

...

PyMOL>cmd.recolor()

etc.

Cheers,
Warren
