In the current open-source and beta builds (1.1), pymol -c script.py -- arg1 arg2
should give a sys.argv of ['script.py', 'arg1', 'arg2'] paralleling the behavior of Python, given similar inputs: python script.py arg1 arg2 Cheers, Warren PS. the "3D" after the equals sign is annoying mailing list / MIME artifact. -- DeLano Scientific LLC Subscriber Support Services mailto:del...@delsci.info > -----Original Message----- > From: pymol-users-boun...@lists.sourceforge.net > [mailto:pymol-users-boun...@lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf > Of Michael Lerner > Sent: Friday, February 15, 2008 8:22 AM > To: Josep Maria Campanera Alsina > Cc: pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [PyMOL] Command-line arguments when using PyMOL > to launch ascript > > Hi, > > First, the initial error you were seeing was a syntax error: > > > from sys import argv > > my_argv =3D argv[argv.index("--"):] > > print my_argv[1], my_argv[2] > > is failing because of the word "3D" > > Second, that used to fail on Linux systems anyway (it worked > on some other systems).
