Agenda

• Save command
• Model hierarchy
• Updates [All]

Discussion

• Tom's list:
  • Check info.plist supported format list - DONE
• Greg's list:
  • add optional subcommand registration - just committed
  • change ChimeraX protocol name in HTML windows to "cxcmd" - DONE
• Save command
  • proposal: split save into subcommand: "save image", "save session", "save stl", etc.
  • current state: "save filename" and use suffix to determine output format
    • use "format" keyword to set format (and automatically add suffix if missing?)
  • compromise: use both subcommands and retain main command
    • saving structures requires "source" keyword to select what to save
    • "source" command is ignored for sessions and images
  • also: make "open" match syntax
• Change file suffixes:
  • cxses -> cxs
  • cxcmd -> cxc
  • keep the long version as protocol names
• Model hierarchy
  • Keep the current model (hierarchy node can both be container and have data)
  • Make ".0" refer to data but not children
• Meeting adjourned

Action Items

• Tom's list:
  • Move forward in finalizing "volume" command syntax
  • Enumerate all formats in "usage save"
• Greg's list:
  • Change suffix names
  • Add save/open subcommands
