Greg,

Documentation on load can be found in the following ways:

PyMOL> load ?

will list arguments

PyMOL> help load

will provide additional usage information.

The PyMOLWiki has a page on the load command:  

http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Load
 
and "load" is also covered in the official docs:

http://delsci.info/dsc/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=command:load

As already discussed on this mailing list, PSE files are not presently
combinable.  Instead, you'll need to write out the individual structures as
PDB files (save command) and then read them back in as a single session. 

I am sorry that PyMOL is a source of frustration for you, and I agree that
PyMOL is not an optimal tool non-programmers; it suffers from a number of
common weakness of open-source software, including developer-oriented
complexity, sparse documentation, and a steep learning curve.  But for
programmers and "domain"-experts, it has compensating strengths in terms of
scriptability, power, and flexibility as well as an open-source license.

In terms of file formats, PyMOL takes PDB, MOL/SDF, MOE, and MAP files as
input and outputs PNG, MOV/AVI, and PSE-format content.  

Cheers,
Warren
