Hi Martin,

This took a bit of work to figure out, but the following code solves
your problem (above).  It will download a PDB (I coded "1RSY") and
select a residue (I coded 236).  I will then mutate that residue to
all possible residues given what the rotamer library knows about, and
write that out to N-files called "stateXYZ.pdb", where XYZ is the
mutation number.  Instead of rewriting the code, it turns out you can
hack the wizard through the API to do what you want:

# begin a python block of code;
python
org = "1rsy"
cpy = "1rsy_cpy"

# fetch a PDB
cmd.fetch(org, async=0)

# make a copy on which to operate
cmd.create(cpy,org)
res = cpy + " and i. 236"

# focus no the residue, if you want
cmd.zoom(res, 3)

# start the wizard to count the number of rotamers for this residue
cmd.wizard("mutagenesis")

# this was the painful part: if you just write "res" instead of "(res)"
# pymol will delete your residue.  "(res)" make it an anonymous selection
cmd.get_wizard().do_select("("+res+")")
nStates = cmd.count_states("mutation")

# foreach state, make the change and write to disk
for i in range(1,nStates+1):
  print "State ", i, "/", nStates
  cmd.get_wizard().do_select("("+res+")")
  cmd.frame(i)
  cmd.get_wizard().apply()
  cmd.save("state" + str(i) + ".pdb", cpy)
  cmd.delete(cpy)
  cmd.create(cpy,org)

# end the python block
python end

# quit the wizard
cmd.set_wizard()

Cheers,

-- Jason
