[PyMOL] Problems importing pymol functionality under a python script.

[David McGiven]

Dear PyMol Users,

I am developing some programs in python. In one of them, I would need to
use some PyMol funcionalities.

However, I keep getting errors that I'm not able to solve. I've checked
the __main__.py file instructions on the header, it doesn't work either.

I'm using the following :

Debian Sarge with : 
        - Linux kernel 2.6. 
        - IA-32 Intel processor. 
        - Python 2.3.5 
        - pymol-0.99rc6

For instance :

[r...@machine root]# python
Python 2.3.5 (#2, Oct 16 2006, 19:19:48)
[GCC 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path.append('/opt/soft/pymol/modules')
>>> from pymol import cmd
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "pymol.py", line 4, in ?
    pymol.finish_launching()
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'finish_launching'


Does anybody know what's going on ?

Thanks in advance
