Hi Gary -

In the session you want to record, before performing the actions or commands, 
type:

```
log_open log.pml
```

You can also optionally provide the full path to the log file.  

Then to replay the recorded instructinos in the new session (here assuming the 
same working directory):

```
@log.pml
```

This is a great way to learn how to automate PyMOL with scripts based on 
actions performed in the GUI.  One caveat is that the various wizards that 
involve picking atoms (measurement, mutagenesis, etc) generally don't work so 
well.  But normal GUI operations (changing view, representation, color, etc.) 
get logged fine.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Jared

Is there a way in pymol to record all the typed commands as well as the menu 
actions (select, show, hide, etc.) so they can be replayed in a script?
