Hi Mohan,

You can use iterate_state, which would be the pymol approach:

coords = {}
iterate_state 1,n. ca,coords[i]=(x,y,z)

Or you can take a lower level approach; the python one:

for i in cmd.get_model('n. ca').atom:
  print i.coord

cmd.get_model builds you a ChemPy model from a given selection. The
.atom property is the list of atoms. If you want to know what else is
possible you might want to have a look at the
properties/attributes/methods defined:

for i in dir(cmd.get_model('n. ca').atom[0]): print i

Hope it helps,

Tsjerk

Of course neither way would restrict you to plotting...
