Hi Bob, PyMOL 1.7.2.0 has a workaround (by default) to load the asym_id into the segi (segment identifier) field, which can hold 4 letters. The chain will still be single letter (internal data structure limitation). PyMOL 1.6 doesn't handle multi-letter asym_id at all.
Our next major release (1.8 probably) will have proper multi-letter chain support with refactored internal data structure.
