[chimera-dev] MD movie for xyz format

Dear all,

would it be possible to have xyz format accepted for the MD movie tool. Someting identical to the PDB (with both multiple xyz file or unique xyz file containing several structures) would be more than enough. We frequently use this standard and that would be useful for us to have such possbility. 

All the best,
JD
