Yes, that was quite helpful. The 'foreach' option only became available starting with the 1.3 release. You are running 1.2.5, so you need to upgrade. --Eric On Feb 14, 2022, at 3:35 PM, Rangarajan, Amith <Amith.Rangarajan at ucsf.edu ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ZjQcmQRYFpfptBannerStart

Hi Amith,
I don't care so much about the contents of your script per se — I'd like to see the contents of the log when the error occurs.  Do this:  run the command that generates the "'foreach' has no suffix" error and then use Help→Report A Bug and submit a bug report.  That will include the contents of the log, which is what I need to see.  Thanks!

Dear Tom and Eric,

I used notepad ++ to make sure that the cxc file was not a .txt ( i am on windows) and i am still getting the error ( foreach has no suffix)  . i have  attached my .cxc script .

I am trying to read a set of .mae files and write a log file with RMSD and some distance measurements.

I am new to chimera and would benefit a lot from your review of my script and possible fixes for this issue.

thank a lot for your time.

best regards,
amith

Hi Eric,

  Not quite sure I understand your theory abut Amith's error.  In current ChimeraX daily build using non-existent files with open command

open something.cxc foreach somethingelse.py
> No such file/path: something.cxc

gives a very sensible error message and does not try to interpret "foreach" as a file name.

Hi Amith,
That error message indicates to me that the first file name (script.cxc) isn't being recognized as a ChimeraX command script file.  So take a hard look at the command you typed and make sure that the suffix for that file is ".cxc" and not something mistyped like ".cxs" or whatnot.

Hi,

I am trying to run a script and want to use foreach ( open script.cxc foreach *.pdb) to iterate through several pdb files in the working directory.

I had no issues with running it earlier, but since last few tries, i am getting an error stating that ""'foreach' has no suffix""

I am not able to figure out how to debug this.

I am using the latest build of chimerax.

I will highly appreciate your suggestions on fixing this.

best
amith
