[Chimera-users] Step through trajectory from command line?

[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Kristina,
	There is no command for advancing trajectory frames.  Perhaps you  
can detail the scenario that you need this for and why the per-frame  
scripting of the MD Movie tool doesn't cover your needs.  Are you  
trying to completely automate the production of a movie from a  
trajectory or some such?
	Even if there were a command to advance the trajectory, how would  
you know when to stop?  There are no "flow control" statements (if  
statements/for loops/functions) in the Chimera command language.  I  
think you will have to use Python scripting for completely automating  
trajectory-related scripting.  I can provide assistance there.
