Hi Brenton,
you can find a detailed documentation for the Jmol scripting language at the 
following URL : http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/

Regarding your question, when you start Jmol, you open up the Jmol console (for 
example by right-clicking the visualization area).
When you are all set, you can type in your scripts.
First define your selection (by defaults all atoms are selected and the ensuing 
commands would affect the whole macromolecule), then choose your display and 
colouring schemes.
E.g. :
select protein;
ribbon only; //or cartoon only or rocket only depending on your preferences
color structure;
select ligand;
spacefill;
color cpk;
hide (cd, so4);

and you're done ! (I don't know what you'd want to do with the water molecules 
displayed ; you can select those with any of the following keywords : "water", 
"hoh", "solvent")

Happy Jmoling,
Paul
