Ah I see--I will try and let you know how it works. Thanks again!

One more addition to the reply:
I failed to notice that you are trying to input a range of residues '17-19'
Make sure to input single atom selections to get correct distances and not an
average:
A straightforward way to get that name is to click on the atom while in the
'editing mode' of pymol: pymol will print: "you clicked" followed by a name
that can be copy-pasted.
e.g. "You clicked /lys///LYS`2/CA -> (pk1)" can be used to copy-paste
/lys///LYS`2/CA
Another alternative is to use selections to identify one atom:
e.g.
cmd.distance('chain B and resi 297 and name CB','chain A and resi 17 and name
CB')
Then your example becomes:
from pymol import cmd
# open dist.txt for writing
f=open('distnew.txt','w')
# calculate the distance and store it in dst
dst1=cmd.distance('chain B and resi 297 and name CB','chain A and resi 17 and
name CB')
dst2=cmd.distance('chain B and resi 297 and name CB','chain A and resi 18 and
name CB')
dst3=cmd.distance('chain B and resi 297 and name CB','chain A and resi 19 and
name CB')
# and then for writing the output file
f.write("%8.3f\n"%dst1)
f.write("%8.3f\n"%dst2)
f.write("%8.3f\n"%dst3)
f.close()
Cheers,
Andreas

Hej Suzanne,
you will need to append the other two distances to the script to get them
printed.
Following your example that would be something like:
# calculate the distance and store it in dst
dst1=cmd.distance('tmp','B///297/cb','A///17-19/cb')
dst2=cmd.distance('tmp','B///297/cb','A///17-19/cb') # change the selections in
this line!
dst3=cmd.distance('tmp','B///297/cb','A///17-19/cb') # change the selections in
this line!
# and then for writing the output file
f.write("%8.3f\n"%dst1)
f.write("%8.3f\n"%dst2)
f.write("%8.3f\n"%dst3)
inserting these blocks in your script hopefully will do the trick.
Cheers,
Andreas

Another follow up question to this. I decided to use the measure distance
python script on the pymol wiki to do this, and I was able to do it
successfully with a range of residues, but my question is about the output txt
file. When I run the script I get the correct distances (all 3 of them) to
show on the GUI but the text file that is generated (distnew.txt) only lists
one distance--so perhaps the script needs to be modified for this as well for
the residues measured?
The original script is at the link
http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Measure_Distance<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Measure_Distance&k=7DHVT22D9IhC0F3WohFMBA%3D%3D%0A&r=1ciN0EuZ9XNq3lPnYtgkI5sKPXgKVaywidBN0C981SQ%3D%0A&m=EqubiL9cuYdYV13TK4bGte5vmf3Plq1xmWomVmdYlKU%3D%0A&s=992466ee53608d828281d0abbd95dc2742e6c75173eb93ae511f357e3225548b>
and my modified version is below. Suggestions appreciated! Thank you.
# This script writes the distance from
# atom mol1///25/ha to atom mol1///26/ha
# out to the file "dist.txt"
# Simply change your selections to see different distances.
# import PyMOL's command namespace
from pymol import cmd
# open dist.txt for writing
f=open('distnew.txt','w')
# calculate the distance and store it in dst
dst=cmd.distance('tmp','B///297/cb','A///17-19/cb')
# write the formatted value of the distance (dst)
# to the output file
f.write("%8.3f\n"%dst)
# close the output file.
f.close()

Hi Suzanne,
You can also get the distance printed in the external GUI or terminal window
by using the "cmd.distance" version of the command. So either you can
assign the distance to a variable and print it or you can print the result
directly.
Assuming you have two selections, sele1 and sele2 specifying the atoms of
interest you can do:
d = cmd.distance(sele1,sele2)
print sele1,sele2,d
Cheers,
Rob
