There was a post a few days ago asking whether it was possible to script Jmol to display straight lines from one 3D point to another 3D point, and a reply asking for what use this would be. I would find this functionality extremely useful for displaying/undisplaying hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions (which are defined by our software). We currently offer these predefined selections in our PyMol scripts (produced by our software), and I would like to make it available on our web-based version of the software.

for displaying bonds I suggest to implement the RasMol bond <src> <dest> + command (unbond), which is used to CONECT any two atoms, allowing double bond wireframe rendering in PDB files (and may be, in future Jmol versions, structure manipulations).

In general, any user-defined interaction could be displayed this way (such as the small-world and contact-order networks some people use to understand protein folding rates).

A draw command for any geometric object is an other construction site, e.g.
draw line <ID> [x1,y1,z1] [x2,y2,z2]
