[PyMOL] new user

2003-01-14 Thread Nukri Sanishvili
Hi all,



I just installed PyMol last week on my Linux and PC and laptop and I love
it! And v0.86 is of course better with its session-saving capability.



There is a new thing (I'm pretty sure it's a bug, not a feature) in 0.86:

When I Tab for command completion, the command ends with a comma when in
fact = is expected. For example, set cartoon_fl(Tab)at_sheets, not set
cartoon_fl(Tab)at_sheets=



Print quality doesn't seem to be as high as the image on the display. Do I
need to feed the PyMol output into something else first?



Can (how) I annotate the pictures in PyMol? If it's not there yet, I hope
it'll be soon as annotation is an indivisible right for any figure to have.



Cheers,

Nukri

Actually, that is a feature.  Slowly, the PyMOL command language is becoming 
more consistent (and more Python like).

set name,value

   is preferred over

set name=value

Since it follows the convention that arguments to PyMOL keywords are 
separated by commas.   Nevertheless, I am a strong proponent of backwards 
compatibility.  set parameter=value will continue to function for years to 
come so that old scripts will not break.  

 Print quality doesn't seem to be as high as the image on the 
 display. Do I
 need to feed the PyMol output into something else first?

Increase the resolution:

ray 2000,1500

etc.

Sorry, your figures will continue to be oppressed with versions 0.86.  
Liberation will come in due time.
