===Example 6: some basic scripting=== | |||
Q: I want to prepare scripts to run coot functions like water picking or rotamer fitting in command line. Therefore I am looking for some examples of simple coot scripts, e.g. load ref.pdb, load ref.mtz, fft create map. | |||
Answer: | |||
<pre> | |||
imol = read_pdb("6vw1.pdb") | |||
imol_map = make_and_draw_map("6vw1/6vw1_refine.mtz", "2FOFCWT", "PH2FOFCWT", "", 0, 0) | |||
find_waters(imol_map, imol, 0, 1.4, 1) | |||
