RE: [PyMOL] Newline character in scene annotation message

[Warren D. <wa...@de...>]

Carsten,

Hmm...

Unfortunately, the PyMOL command language currently provide any way of
expressing a newline character, so you will need to use the API form of
the scene command.  Note that it is perfectly legal to use that form in
a ".pml" file as follows, without an intervening variable:

cmd.scene("new","store","line1\nline2")

Cheers,
Warren
