[Chimera-users] Loop through hundreds of files and find HBonds

Hi Eric

I have modified the code:

	hbonds_output = files[:-4] + "hbonds.txt" # change ".pdb" to "hbonds.txt"
	rc("findhbond intermodel  true intramodel  false relax  false reveal  true saveFile" + hbonds_output)

But, the code returns the error below:

File "/private/var/folders/y2/p069gv9n6lsf1x8w08bym32w0000gn/T/AppTranslocation/AF4918BD-D759-418D-AA97-756E6B1D941C/d/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/Midas/midas_text.py", line 3396, in _parseTyped
    % typed
MidasError: No value provided for keyword 'saveFile247_CnA1_pol_frag_1_conf_36_out_01hbonds.txt'

Not sure what could be causing the error.

Thank you

Samuel
