[chimerax-users] combining executable html commands

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Krishnan,
In that case you would concatenate the multiple commands with semicolons between, and put them all into one cxcmd tag in your HTML file:
<https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/tools/helpviewer.html> 

For example, the first clickable link in the Quick Start Guide tutorial runs 2 commands with a single click:  open 2bbv; color bychain
<https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/quickstart/index.html>

Or if that makes too long of a line, you may need to make a separate command file (plain text file with .cxc suffix) containing the set of commands, and then make the click-to-execute command simply open that file, e.g.: open myfile.cxc

ChimeraX command files:
<https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/usageconventions.html#cxc-files>

I hope this helps,
Elaine
