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.

Cheers,
  Thomas
