Hi,

  Thanks for the quick reply. I have previous experience in using Chimera
GUI but not in nogui.

  The main thing that I dont know is to use those commands in nogui mode.

   For example: for saving image, I have used "runCommand("copy str.png") .
but it is now working

   Is there any link to get the informations to use commands in nogui mode

Thank you
