It prints the selection all right. Why then save wouldn't save it:
def bk_saves_unique_pdb(Selection = None):
"""Takes current selection (or "all" -- if nothing selected) and
saves it as a uniquetly named pdb file
(Frame_Selection_RandomString.pdb) in the current working
directory."""
if not Selection:
Selection = cmd.get_names('selections', 1)
if Selection:
Selection = Selection[0] # it was a list
else:
Selection = 'all'
tempFile = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(dir=os.curdir,
prefix="{frame:03d}_{sel}_".format(frame=cmd.get_frame(),
sel=Selection) , suffix=".pdb")
print tempFile.name, Selection # prints righteous file name and
selection name (though not in quotes)
cmd.save(tempFile.name, Selection) # but still saves nothing
cmd.extend("bk_saves_unique_pdb", bk_saves_unique_pdb)
