[Chimera-users] HELP: I'm wondering about how to access the surface data

[Tom Goddard]

Chimera includes Python.  I'm not  sure what path you are asking about.  
Two ways to use Python in Chimera are 1) use File / Open to open a 
Python script (myfile.py).  This will run the Python code.  Print 
statements from the code will appear in the Reply Log (shown with menu 
entry Favorites / Reply Log).  To directly work with a Python shell 
within Chimera use menu entry Tools / General Controls / IDLE.  IDLE is 
the name of a Python shell developed by others.  That gives you a window 
with a Python prompt where you can type in Python code and run it and 
explore Chimera data structures.
