Re: [PyMOL] Is it possible to pass command line arguments to a .pml file?

Hey :)

You don't even need the python block, as the pymol interpreter is a python
interpreter with just some added extras. Single lines of python code are
never a problem. This works nicely for me

File test-argv.pml:
================

print sys.argv
for i in sys.argv[1:]: print i


Run pymol:
================

pymol test-argv.pml -- bla bla bla


Output:
================

PyMOL>print sys.argv
['/martini/tsjerk/Programs/pymol-1.5.0.4/pymol.exe', 'bla', 'bla', 'bla']
PyMOL>for i in sys.argv[1:]: print i
bla
bla
bla


Enjoy!
