Hi,
You can run arbitrary python programs using the command line "run"
command:
run path_to_programs/python_program.py
The File->Run menu seems to prefer .pml files (that is, the dialog
filters out all but these). And I think that pml files are meant for
line by line interpreting.

Hi all
I've written some python code that I want to run from inside pymol
using
the File/Run command. After some playing around looking at error
messages
and the pymol source, I saw that pymol is reading my file line by
line and
passing each line to eval.
So if my file contains lines that are each complete python commands,
File/Run works fine. But if it contains python like
if a == b:
pass
then File/Run fails with a syntax error (as eval falls over when it is
passed just the first line).
While I can see an obvious (and ugly) way to work around this, I
wanted to
first ask if there is another way to do what I'm trying to achieve.
Without
trying to understand too much of the pymol source, I can see it
does use
execfile under some circumstances. Is there some recommended way to
run a
file of code? Maybe my code should simply call execfile itself?
Thanks for any help,
Terry Jones
