Re: [PyMOL] conformational states in the mutagenesis wizard

[Dan K. <dw...@ma...>]

Hey,
    The rotamer toggle script originally loaded the Dunbrack 
Backbone-Dependent rotamer library upon PyMOL startup.  However, I've 
changed it so that it will get loaded the first time you try to access 
the rotamer menu instead.  The code is fixed on www.PyMOLwiki.org .  Now 
PyMOL will start at regular speed. Thanks for the catching the 'bug' Xavier.

I beleive the mutagensis wizard in the newer ( > 0.98) will incorporate 
the Dunbrack library in some way or another.
