Hi John, Please be aware that there is a difference between a python script that allows you to define some functionality you can use in PyMOL (usually with a .py ending), and a script that will read coordinates and do some PyMOL stuff (which I usually apply a .pml ending).
So, what I think is happening is that you have a python script that defines a function in PyMOL. But you don't use the function afterwards to actually make something appear on the screen. Alternatively you have a script with proper PyMOL commands, but that kind of scripts you need to "run" by typing "@myscript.pml" on the command line. Don't know how to do that from the GUI. I think that http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/LoadDir should give you an idea of what I am talking about. Hope this helps.
