Re: [PyMOL] Rtools Question

[Kristian R. <k_r...@ya...>]

Dear Tony,

You can get quite far with the mvCmd command. The parser will get 
confused if you issue complex commands that way, but there are workarounds.

Example:
You want to rotate one chain only over some movie frames.

Step 1) write a rotate.pml script, containing:
rotate x,5,chain A

Step 2) use it from mvCmd:
mvCmd 1-100,@rotate.pml
movie

For more complex things (like using the sin()-smoothed movement 
features), you will probably need to hack into rtools/rMovie.py

Yours,

    Kristian
