Hi,

I don't think there is a special script for this. Your particles will
probably be represented by simple spheres or cubes, right? Did you read
Timo's question about polyhedra and Carsten's answer about CGOs?

http://www.mail-archive.com/pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg11645.html

For spheres, the easiest is to use pseudoatoms instead of CGOs:

PyMOL> pseudoatom particle1, vdw=5.0, pos=[1.2, 3.4, 5.6]
PyMOL> as sphere, particle1
PyMOL> zoom buffer=10

You can move around that atom in edit mode with Ctrl+Drag.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
  Thomas
