Dear Simon and other pymolers, I have realised that the solution to getting cctbx working with pymol on windows I posted no longer works with recent builds of cctbx. I have found that the following solution works:
1. Download and install python (to the default location - C:\Python24) --> http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.4.1/python-2.4.1.msi (1a. If you want to use the draw_symops.py or draw_symops_cctbx.py scripts you also need to install numarray after installing python --> http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/numpy/numarray-1.3.3.win32-py2.4.exe?download) 2. Download cctbx *without* python included and unpack into C:\cctbx_build and C:\cctbx_sources --> http://cci.lbl.gov/cctbx_build/results/2005_08_18_0201/cctbx_win_xp_py24_pre.exe 3. Download pymol built against python 2.4 (but not including its own python) and install in the default location --> http://delsci.com/rel/0_98/pymol-0_98rc5-bin-win32-py24.zip (You cannot use the latest beta versions which include their own version of python to the best of my knowledge) 4. Create 2 files (use notepad or wordpad or any other text editor) and save in the C:\Program Files\Delano Scientific\PyMOL directory: a) pymol.cmd @python -x "%~f0" %* & exit /b import cctbx import pymol b) run.cmd CALL C:\cctbx_build\setpaths_all.bat CALL "C:\Program Files\Delano Scientific\PyMOL\pymol.cmd" 5. One other thing, it's important to have python in your path variable (which you can access by going to control panel|system|advanced|environment variables), just add C:\python24 to the end of the path variable, separated by a semi-colon. Hopefully this should work OK... I know it is working on at least one other system than my own. Let me know if it works for you. I'll post this up on the wiki ASAP. Cheers Roger
