Hi PyMOLers -
Maybe some more experienced users/developers can help me out here. I'm trying
to write some automated test scripts for the plugin I'm writing, but the test
functions end up running before the plugin is loaded. Is there a way to tell
if a plugin has been loaded from within a .pml or .py script? For example, if
the plugin makes commands available via `cmd.extend('my_func', my_func)`, how
can I run `cmd.myfunc()` from a script and not have it execute before the
plugin finishes loading?
I've tried something like this:
```
import time
from pymol import cmd
loaded = 0
while not loaded:
try:
cmd.my_func() # if it's loaded no exception will be raised
loaded = 1
except:
time.sleep(0.5)
```
But this just hangs, as apparently `time.sleep()` halts the execution of all
threads, so the plugin won't ever be loaded.
Thanks,
Jared
