Re: [COOT] navigating back to the ligand

Thanks, this is great. Very helpful, but I tried to open the .scm in GIMP and 
it says unknown file type.

Script attached.  Put it in your ~/.coot-preferences directory.

When you centre on a ligand to which you think that you might want to return, 
press Shift L.
Shift U will return you to the last saved view.  All the views can be recalled 
in the Views Panel:
Extensions -> Views -> Views Panel...

:-) Yes.  This could be better.

You could probably make a script for "Quick View Save" and "Go To Last View" - I imagine that would do most 
of what you want.
