I'm sure it's just the "@" business again, Erik.
colorkey ( "Carbon" , @ colorcarbon )
That says: "colorcarbon is the name of a variable, and the value of THAT
variable should be passed to my colorkey() function."
Don't think that is what you mean. You want this:
colorkey ( "Carbon" , colorcarbon )
@ has just the following uses in Jmol now:
1) To indicate in a standard Jmol script command that we are inserting a
variable with @xxxx or a math expression as @{....}
2) To indicate in a standard Jmol script command or in a Jmol math command
or expression a specific atom, @n, same as {atomindex=n}
3) To indicate that we want the value of a variable whose name is contained
in another:
x = "y"
y = 3
print y
>3
print x
>y
print @x
>3
You're doing that last bit. I believe there was a bug in 11.8 that messed
that up.
