[chimerax-users] tile command in chimeraX

[françois SERRA]

Hi Elaine,
thanks for the quick reply.
my usual routine with 3D models involves loading tens of them, match them
(now align :P) and then "tile", so yes its a bit tedious. I'll keep doing
this in "old" chimera, and look forward for the advances in chimeraX.
thanks again for the tool!!
