Also, a short Python script could be used for this:

from chimera import openModels, Molecule
for m in openModels.list(modelTypes=[Molecule]):
	for r in m.residues:
		print r, r.chi1

If you save the above in a file ending in .py and open it in Chimera  
(e.g. File...Open, or the "open" command) then the chi1 angles of all  
residues will be printed to the reply log.
