You have some options here. If you wish to have different segids and
use the seq2psf helper, you will need to run it twice specifying a
different -segname option and complimentary seq.txt files, and then
load both PSFs in your refinement script. To generate a single PSF
with different segids, you will want to write a little script along
the lines of eginput/PSF_generation/genDNA24bp.py:


import psfGen
psfGen.seqToPSF('s1.seq',seqType='dna',startResid=1,segName='A')
psfGen.seqToPSF('s2.seq',seqType='dna',startResid=1,segName='B'))

xplor.command("write psf output=new.psf end")


Additional bits might be added to generate initial coordinates. Note
that the sequence file should not contain segid specifiers.

best regards--
