RE: [PyMOL] using from native Python

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

Randy,

	For some reason this approach has turned out to be unstable, so I've
basically placed it on "unsupported" status until someone with a better
understanding of Python interactive mode than me can take a look at it.  

	Are you aware that the PyMOL command line is also a Python command
line?  You can just use PyMOL interactively in that fashion.

PyMOL>print 1+1
2
PyMOL>from random import random
PyMOL>print random()
0.739460642143


	The only major difference is that the default namespace for PyMOL is
"pymol" not "__main__"

PyMOL>print __name__
pymol


Cheers,
Warrne
