I am having 2 coordinates in check file. I want to take/read them and paint my pdb file loaded in chimera. I have chimera in my ~/bin/ System specs: ubuntu 64 bit, 13.10, 4gb ram

Below is the command I have used for script-chimera communication

$ chimera64-1.8.1 --script "y.py check" -- Q6UXT6.pdb

I am storing values in listu and want to use them for coloring my file loaded.

    rc("color blue :"+listu[0]+"-"+listu[1])

This works well, if hard coded rc ("color red :55-86")

I do not get any error. The particular protein length is not colored.

attached 3 files. Kindly suggest, how do I proceed.
