[Chimera-users] Chimera script specify filetype

[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Thomas,
	In your openModels.open() call you need to tell Chimera what type of file it is since it has no prefix or suffix.  So change it from openModels.open('2OID') to openModels.open('2OID', type='PDBID').

I find this is true for .py as well as my locally (on this computer) generated .pyc files, but not for the file that you sent.  I don’t know what is different about the file you sent, or whether it could be ascribed to .pyc not being compatible between different platforms.
