Is there an error output? I could see it not working if File10 is not located in the present working directory. If you are running the script by using the load command in pymol you can type pwd or cmd.pwd() on the input line to see the present working directory. The best bet to fix the problem is to prefix the absolute path to the directory with the pdb files. Like so:
cmd.load(‘/home/me/pdbs/‘ + X + ‘.pdb’, x) Alternatively you can use the cd (change directory) command to move pymol’s pwd to the directory containing the pdbs, then you can run the load myscript.py command.
