NOTE: Bug fix for receive.py
# BEGIN receive.py
from pymol import cmd
from time import sleep
import os
filename = "view.txt"
while not sleep(0.2):
if os.path.exists(filename):
try:
cmd.set_view(eval(open(filename,'r').read()))
os.unlink(filename)
except: # if the file isn't yet complete
pass
# END receive.py
Cheers,
Warren
