[Chimera-users] get_view, set_view

[Pranav Shah]

Dear Elaine,

Thanks for pointing that out. I will try them and get back to you.
Just for my understanding, do i need to write out the matrices in
separate files and then read them in separately? Also, do the
transformation matrices work with volume files? Thanks for your help
once again!

Cheers,
Pranav
