Hi Sasi, for "pair_fit" you have to match all atom pairs manually. I guess what you want is "align" on the full monomers and then "rms_cur" (or just distance measure) on each CA pair.
Have a look at the "rmsd_b.py" script from http://pldserver1.biochem.queensu.ca/~rlc/work/pymol/ It writes per residue deviation to the b-factor column. Example: fetch 2hv1, async=0 extract mono2, chain B align mono2, 2hv1, cycles=0, object=aln rmsd_b mono2 & aln, 2hv1 & aln iterate mono2 and name CA, print (resi,b) Hope that helps.
