Hi Greg, and welcome! > 1. Where is the doco of label parameters %a %n etc.
You got to the "label" doc, http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/#label and it says "See atom properties for a detailed list of atom properties that can be included in labels" which leads you to http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/#atomproperties The table there has both new and old syntax, label %[xxx] label %x > 2.

If you are running the Jmol app, both its window and the console window open at the last used position on screen (but I use Windows, not Mac) For the applet, I don't think it can be done. > 3.

You can pass script commands or load script files, see http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/Jmol_Application#Loading_files_and_running_s cripts For the app, there is also "macros" from the top bar menu, which loads files. What kind of arguments you speak about, and where would they be written? > 4. Can I create a directory in Jmol script ? Don't think so. > 5. Can I do upper/lower case conversion of a string in Jmol ? Don't know, please check Jmol Math doc. But I doubt it. What for? Jmol scripting language is case-insensitive. > 6. Is there a compact reference for just the programming language of Jmol. It > seems scattered > around in places like .. > http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/#jmolmath > http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/#while Not sure what you'd call "programming". In some sense, all scripting is such. Then you have the Jmol Math and the control structures as you have found. What would you include under "programming language"? If you think it relevant, you could create a documentation page (or rather an index with pointers to the Scripting Doc sections) in the Wiki. > Many thanks, aplogies for the newbie stuff.
