[Chimera-users] Read compressed PDB files -question, suggestion

[Moo Cow]

We store the PDB locally, but compressed.
Can one persuade chimera to read coordinates from a pipe ?
Maybe this could be done at the python level.
It might also not be too hard to use the python binding
to the zlib library, but I would not know how to do this.

I imagine the interest (or not) would not be limited to reading
PDB files.

many thanks for any suggestions.
