2) filelist:
Yes. Yes it does. Although typing "load <tab>" works too...
What I should have said was that I often find myself (and others in our
group have in the past) looking at a whole bunch of structures, one after
the other. When you are looking at 100s of structures in a row it gets
tiring to keep typing opening each structure with the menu or a load
command. (I once did this with rasmol for about 4 hours, continuously -
after a while you lose the ability to see a structure in 3D; it's quite
odd).
So.. it would be nice to have a gui element that displays a list of files
you are looking at (perhaps showing which ones you've looked at already?).
It occurred to me as I thought about /why/ I wnated such a thing that it
would be candy to combine this with the "command list" stephen mentioned to
get a kind of temporary script which would be run on each file in the list
when you opened it. A kind of frozen view (or a curried one?).
Maybe I should just make it. Then I wouldn't have to explain the idea.
4) sec struc elem:
No, not really. I kind of meant something like Roman's wireplots, e.g. :

Or even maybe the nice shiny new topology plots they have :

Or maybe even some kind of tops cartoon... if those lazy tops people can get
their acts together! :)

Typing:
lst=os.listdir('.'); print lst
into the pymol prompt seems to do the trick (and you could loop over it if
you were so inclined).
Of course, it's not particuarly pretty/gui-friendly; but it works.

Doesn't show cartoons do this already?
