Dear Mr. Thomas

Ok, some basic PyMOL knowledge:

whenever you "load" something to PyMOL it is given a name.

load test_map.xplor, test_map

Now PyMOL knows that the map is henceforth called "test_map"

Therefore you should write
 isomesh mapobject, test_map, 2.0, site, carve=1.6

btw it is also possible to use a ccp4 map; simply rename the file to
end with ccp4 instead of map

example:

mv test_map.map test_map.ccp4

use test_map.ccp4 instead of the xplor map. (this might prove to be
slower though)

furthermore I would suggest you read the pymol wiki
(http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Load)

or when using PyMOL try the help function:

help load
help isomesh
help color

hope this helps
