Re: [COOT] CentOS 6 Screenshot

2015-04-07 Thread Mark Brooks
Is this really an X error, or can coot not find the executables for povray or 
raster3d?

execlp [1] seems to complain that it can't find files, which may feed back to 
Guile Gtk that there is an error with a similar phenotype to an X error.
[1] : http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?execlp+3

Are povray and raster3d in your $PATH? Just a thought.

Re: [COOT] Is there a way to dump the text from the command window in Windows7

2011-02-13 Thread Mark Brooks
Hi,
 A nice terminal program which has more features than the Windows cmd
window (like easier copy and paste) is Console:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/console/

The best version for me is this one:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/console/files/console-devel/2.00/Console-2.00b147-Beta_32bit.zip/download
 (it's a beta, but the last stable release was in 2005, and the betas are
still being released).

Because I'm usually happier with unix style commands I then install cygwin,
and get console to use the cygwin bash shell. Then you can redirect your
standard output to a file:
$superpose  EOF  superpose.log
(superpose commands go here!)
EOF

The cygwin stuff is rather more involved and takes time to configure, but at
least the Console program is an easy replacement for the windows cmd
shell.

Good luck.

Re: [COOT] problem with install on new Macbook Pro (OS X 10.5)

2009-06-05 Thread Mark Brooks
Hi,
   The CCP4 download page has a proper package, which works, despite
being an older version.

I had problems with his binaries too, (from this web page:
http://sage.ucsc.edu/~wgscott/xtal/wiki/index.php/Installing_Coot_on_OS_X
)

...but the best way for me was to use his fink installation method
(fink seems to be a wrapper for apt-get, as far as I can tell):

http://sage.ucsc.edu/~wgscott/xtal/wiki/index.php/Getting_your_fink_installation_to_use_packages_that_I_have_pre-compiled

Synopsis:

1) Install fink
2) Edit /sw/etc/fink.conf
3) Update fink
4) Install Coot
fink -b  install coot

...which should give you a new binary: /sw/bin/coot

This is a synopsis, but there are full instructions on the web page,
starting here:
http://sage.ucsc.edu/~wgscott/xtal/wiki/index.php/Getting_your_fink_installation_to_use_packages_that_I_have_pre-compiled#Before_you_begin

I hope this helps

Re: [COOT] Coot 0.5.2 and Molprobity problem

2009-01-07 Thread Mark Brooks
Hi,

The Phenix Molprobity binaries work for me on Coot 0.5 pre1 rev 1563 and 0.5
rev 1444. I can't say for Coot 5.2. I should do an update I guess, but I'm
having a pause after CCP4 6.1, and Phenix 1.4.3.

Updating Phenix also updates molprobity binaries too, which is handy:
(define *probe-command* /usr/local/phenix/phenix-1.4-
3/build/intel-linux-2.6/bin/phenix.probe)
(define *reduce-command*
/usr/local/phenix/phenix-1.4-3/build/intel-linux-2.6/bin/phenix.reduce)

These are the phenix versions, which work for me.
probe.2.12.071128
reduce.3.14.080821

...whereas these don't work and just give the blank windows and no pink
clashes.
probe.2.12.070727
reduce.3.10.080107

so be careful with the minor, minor version numbers!

HTH,

Mark

  I seem to be running into the same problem reported by other people with
 Coot showing a blank clashes window.

 I'm using the official Coot 0.5.2 python-gtk2 binary on Fedora 10 with
 probe 2.12 and reduce 3.13.  Probe/reduce seem to run correctly; I get a
 coot-molprobity output directory with files and their exit status is 0,

 the dots are never drawn and the Molprobity Probe Clash Gaps window is
 blank with just a single OK button.


 I am using 2.12.071128 and that works fine on my Ubuntu machine.

 On my FC4 machine that causes an immediate crash.  However, 2.12.070727
 doesn't crash but behaves in the same manner as you describe.

 look at probe-dots.out.  If you have (something like)
 :1-1:wc:A   6 VAL HG13 :A  92 ILE  HA  :
 that fails.

 If you have
 :1-1:wc: A   6 VAL HG13 : A  92 ILE  HA  :
 that works.

 Or so I think.  If that is not the issue, then I don't know what it is.
 (The format change is to support hybrid_36 pdb files).

  An email in a similar thread from Bernhard Lohkamp on 11/18 suggested that
 if the window was blank, the version of probe was too old, but I don't see
 a more recent version.


 We encouraged them to make a new version for Windows.  It would be nice if
 I could have a version that worked on FC4 too.

  Any clues on what I'm doing wrong would be much appreciated.


 HTH?

 See you soon,

 Mark Brooks wrote:

 Hi,
 It may be useful to have a 'contrib' section for the Coot binary download
 web page (or even some unofficial web page), so that we have more options of
 binaries to test. For example, upon upgrading to Ubuntu Hardy Heron, Coot
 stopped working, for reasons beyond my understanding, but worked when
 recompiled. (Which was very easy using the build-it-gtk2-simple script BTW).
 To have a central repository of tested binaries could be very handy, to
 avoid having to do this.
 The Coot developers and yourself (Bill) have done an enormous amount to
 furnish us with working, tested programs,  but perhaps one or two more
 updated binaries contributed by users  would be useful, especially for newer
 releases of the myriad Linux flavours.
 I think for the Coot developers to start providing .deb, .rpm and Gentoo
 packages for every update is too onerous, especially when .tar.gz files work
 OK. Just my opinion.
 Which Ubuntu are you on Bill, and which binary are you using? Are these
 on your debian web site? I guess I may be able to give a Hardy Heron binary
 if need be.
 Thanks for your .debs though, I use them all the time.

Re: [COOT] Coot molprobity problem in Version 0.5?

2008-10-14 Thread Mark Brooks
Just a note to concur with this message.

I'm getting this with 0.5, Ubuntu 8.04 32-bit.  There was no problem with
coot-0.5-pre-1-revision-1211 BTW.

I haven't figured out why, and would love to know.

Mark

2008/10/14 James M. Vergis [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 I think there is a problem with the way coot parses the output from
 coot-molprobity/probes-dots.out for displaying the probe clashes and making
 the Molprobity Probe Clash Gaps window.

 Using the reduce and probe versions in example #1 below, coot 0.5 will
 display the packing/clashes on the molecule but the Molprobity Probe Clash
 Gaps window where you can click on each residue doesn't display the
 information properly and will return a not found error and therefore not
 choose the residue. I think this is related to the extra space between the
 : and the A in the examples below.  If I use the versions of
 reduce/probe that work fine in coot 0.4.1 in 0.5, the Molprobity Probe
 Clash Gaps window is empty and the clashes/packing are not drawn on the
 molecule.  Running probe from the command line also results in these gaps(I
 hope all this makes sense).

 I have tried several combinations of reduce/probe (both compiled from
 source
 and downloaded binaries) and also tested this with a a pre-built binary to
 make sure my 64-bit version of coot 0.5 wasn't to blame.
