Update: With respect to "import pymol", I think all of the reported segmentation fault and race conditions have now been eliminated from the very latest source code. Since everyone doesn't have CVS access, I have posted a source tar-gz file on http://delsci.com/beta with updated instructions on building and usage.
So if you are a unix-based Python developer with an interest in calling PyMOL from you own stadalone applications, then this would be a good time to try building from source into your own Python environment in order to see whether or not it can work for you. Windows is a possibility too, but getting all the dependencies satisfied under Win32 is a bit of a chore. Cheers, Warren -- Warren L. DeLano, Ph.D. Principal Scientist .
