I see that in today's daily build this works (albeit with "open2"), 
great! But I can't open an alignment in the same fashion:

open2 equally-long-url data pir

complains with "Invalid "dataFormat" argument".

open2 equally-long-url data NBRF/PIR

gives a syntax error (chimerax/seqalign/parse.py tries to exec "from 
.io.readNBRF/PIR import read" which isn't valid Python). Is this code 
still in flux or should I open a bug?
