Description

The ribbon divisions along the length of the ribbon currently can be set to a minimum value of 2 (using "graphics ribbonDivisions 2" command), making a the ribbon have 3 segments per residue. Would be useful to have 2 or 1 segments per residue for outputing low triangle count models for virtual reality.

Currently using ribbon divisions = 1 (2 segments) causes a seg fault with an error about trying to make an array of size -72.

Cartoon code REALLY REALLY wants to have both a front and back end to the ribbon, so the minimum number of divisions is 2
