Takefumi,
# If launching PyMOL from an external interpreter, then you need
# these two lines first:
import pymol
pymol.finish_launching()
# If using PyMOL directly, then start here...
from pymol import cmd
# A command like the following
cmd.do("show cartoon")
# is essentially equivalent to:
cmd.show("cartoon")
# end example script
Now, if you save the above in a script.py file, you can
python script.py
assuming that PyMOL has been installed as a Python module.
If using a standalone version of PyMOL, then for synchronous execution,
issue:
pymol script.py
(equivalent to "run script.py" from within PyMOL)
or for asynchronous execution, issue:
pymol -l script.py
(equivalent to "spawn script.py" from within PyMOL)
On Windows use "(pymol-install-path)\pymolwin.exe" instead of "pymol".
Hopefully that answers your question : ). Sorry for the complexity, but
that's the price of flexibility.
Cheers,
Warren
