Hi Jason,

Along those lines, would it be possible to have a 'default' which can
be set to a list of settings related to appearance? That might be more
concise than to have everything in a separate setting.

set default,[cartoon, lines, nonbonded, cbaw]

The default value as pymol starts up now would be [lines, nonbonded, cbag].

Just my 2 eurocents...

Cheers,

Tsjerk
