<div dir="ltr"><pre>Hi Albert,<br></pre><pre><br>I'm pretty sure this doesn't exist at present, and I guess it would require <br>substantial changes to make it work - You'd need to make sure that chimera <br>couldn't write out anything after reading that session, and given that Chimera <br>is open source and has many different ways of writing data out that might be tricky.<br><br>However, that said, I think having a read-only packaged session format would be<br>a very valuable addition (particularly if it incorporated support for maps), because <br>it would solve a long standing issue in peer review of structural biology <br>results - how to provide raw data for inspection to reviewers without providing maps <br>and models with no strings attached, which many PIs are disinclined to do.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Oliver.<br><br>>Hello:
