[PyMOL] duplicate

[Bronwyn C. <br...@bi...>]

I have an odd thing happening.  I have both the MacOS X native (version 
0.9) and the fink (version 0.86) versions of pymol.  I've been trying 
to use the "duplicate" function (under the diamond icon) for the fist 
time.  This works just fine in the OS X version, but in the fink 
version I get the following error:

Selector-Error: Malformed selection.
( 1G7D<--
  Selector: found 0 atoms.
  Executive: object "obj06" created.

The OS X one, when doing exactly the same thing gives:

  Executive: object "1G7D" created.
  Selector: found 1673 atoms.
  Executive: object "obj01" created.

I want to use the fink version because of the menus (there are a number 
of things I've never worked out how to do in the command line - like 
getting the mouse back into viewing mode once I've been in editing 
mode), but I need to be able to duplicate the molecule!  Help!
