Dear PyMOL users.
Since 1/5-2012 (revision 3997) pymol has an improved plugin manager due to
Thomas Holder's effort.
I personally believe that it is a wonderful tool to extend the capabilities
of PyMOL, making it easy and fast to acquire new scripts.
Since November 2011, a group of pymol users has been involved in moving a
kind-of-large fraction of the scripts in pymolwiki under revision control
via git and hosted at
https://github.com/Pymol-**Scripts/Pymol-script-repo<https://github.com/Pymol-Scripts/Pymol-script-repo>
This makes it easy to download all the scripts at one time, and also make
it possible to the authors to push changes and corrections out to the users.
*The combination of the improved plugin manager and the repository is
powerful, and I would be interested to hear if this is useful for others.*
I have tried to make an easy guide to use the combination.
So, if you are a little experienced in pymol+python and know a little
about paths and if have a PyMOL version with the new plugin manager, then I
would be interested in any comments.
The project is described here:
http://pymolwiki.org/index.**php/Git<http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Git>
The guide is here:
http://pymolwiki.org/index.**php/Git_install<http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Git_install>
1) Get the repository
- One can either download a zip file of the git repository, and unpack it.
http://pymolwiki.org/index.**php/Git_install#Manual_**download_of_scripts<http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Git_install#Manual_download_of_scripts>
- Or install a git repository manager, and directly pull changes from the
repository.

2) Combine with plugin manager :
Then open PyMOL. Go to top menu: Plugin->Plugin Manager
1. Installed plugins: Unclick "apbs_tools" as "load on startup". (The
Pymol-script-repo has a fine-tuned version, "apbsplugin")
2. Settings->Add new directory: Point to:
/custom/path/Pymol-script-repo/plugins
3. Restart PyMOL
--------------
If there is any script or plugin from the pymolwiki, which you think would
be good to have in the repository, don't hesitate to write me
with the suggestion, and I will put it in.
