Hi Doug - You can launch PyMOL with the -c flag for command line only (no GUI). See http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Command_Line_Options for more details. Cheers, Jared -- Jared Sampson Xiangpeng Kong Lab NYU Langone Medical Center http://kong.med.nyu.edu/ On Nov 11, 2014, at 2:56 PM,

[PyMOL] Access API without the GUI

2014-11-11 Thread Douglas Houston
Hi all, Does anyone know if there's a way of accessing Pymol's API without the GUI? There are some useful functions in there and my loops would iterate a lot faster if the GUI didn't fire up every time. cheers, Doug _ Dr. Douglas R. Houston
