[Chimera-users] Ensemble Cluster via command line

[Conrad Huang]

Unfortunately, the EnsembleCluster interface is designed around the GUI 
and it's non-trivial to separate the clustering code out cleanly into a 
non-GUI interface.  On the plus side, if you're willing to play with 
Python a bit, I already have some code (attachment cluster.py) that 
calls the underlying NMRCluster code.  If you run the command:

	chimera --nogui your.pdb cluster.py

you should get some output that looks like:

...
Cluster 39: size:4, rep:#0.409, members:#0.494 #0.353 #0.409 #0.475
Cluster 40: size:4, rep:#0.277, members:#0.277 #0.311 #0.309 #0.346
Cluster 41: size:4, rep:#0.451, members:#0.451 #0.495 #0.490 #0.493
Cluster 42: size:4, rep:#0.215, members:#0.215 #0.243 #0.400 #0.444
Cluster 43: size:4, rep:#0.229, members:#0.355 #0.428 #0.189 #0.229
Cluster 44: size:4, rep:#0.231, members:#0.200 #0.231 #0.337 #0.389
...

as well as a PDB file named "reps.pdb" that includes the representative 
model for each cluster.  Is that close to what you need to do?
