Carsten,
Hmm...
Unfortunately, the PyMOL command language currently provide any way of
expressing a newline character, so you will need to use the API form of
the scene command. Note that it is perfectly legal to use that form in
a ".pml" file as follows, without an intervening variable:
cmd.scene("new","store","line1\nline2")
Cheers,
Warren
