[chimerax-users] Coloring Chains Sensitive to Case After Combine

Hi Jacob,
	I'm glad you're liking combine.  The lack of case sensitivity was an oversight on my part.  It will be fixed in tonight's daily build.  In the interim, this command will make the chains IDs for that model case sensitive:

	setattr #(combination model number) m lower_case_chains true

When I color #6/D (i.e. color #6/D green), this also is coloring chain #6/d. Is this the expected behavior? When I read help:user/commands/atomspec.html it seems that the chain identifier should be case sensitive if both upper and lowercase chain IDs are present.
