Hi, 'save' will save all atoms by default, not only the visible ones. cat in Linux will surely be more efficient than loading in Pymol and saving, but the question related to alignment. cat doesn't do that for you. So the procedure would be:
load A.pdb,A load B.pdb,B align A,B save AB-aligned.pdb Just one addition, Pymol may reorder the atoms. If this is okay (it won't matter for subsequent displaying), don't bother. Otherwise, before saving you might want to 'set retain_order,on' Cheers, Tsjerk On Jan 26, 2008 11:11 AM, Martin Höfling <martin.hoefl...@gmx.de> wrote: > Am Samstag, 26.
