[Chimera-users] Chimera Using Problem

[Greg Couch]

Using Chimera's python.exe does not work as you noticed.  You need to 
use chimera.exe instead, but note that "chimera.exe --nogui" gives you a 
Chimera command line prompt instead of a Python command line prompt, so 
you need to use a Python script.  See my answer from yesterday, 
http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimera-users/2014-July/010120.html, 
about using Python modules in Chimera.

     Bonne Chance,

     Greg
