Description

Hello,

I have a *text file list* of 30-40 maps from emdb that I would like to
download and save using chimeraX. Each map should be named for example
5995.mrc, where 5995 is the actual EMDB id. Is there a way to do this using
CLI to make it faster than downloading 1 by 1?  I am not sure how to
instruct chimeraX to take the file name from the open models.

open 5995 from emdb              #opens the file and assigns #1
save ???.mrc models #1           #save the model 1 but how to instruct
chimerax to take the model's name

Ideally would be something like this:

Input: emdb-ID.txt
Output: 40 single .mrc maps named according to their EMDBIDs.


open emdb-ID.txt from emdb
save all, models #1-40 name=????


Please let me know if I can implement this.

Thank you and best regards,
