The Python would be:

from chimera import dialogs
from StructureDiagram.gui import StructureDiagramDialog
dlg = dialogs.display(StructureDiagramDialog.name)
dlg.updateImageFromSmiles("C1[C at H]2[C@@H]([C@@H](S1)CCCCC(=O)O)NC(=O)N2")

Put the above in a file with a ".py" suffix and just follow the instructions Elaine gave.
