[chimera-dev] copy_molecule does not keep representation

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Pablo,
I don’t know about the python script, which may be old, but the “mcopy” command has specific options  for colors, display styles, etc.  See:

<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/mcopy.html>

I hope this helps,
Elaine
