Hi Conrad, I think I have goofed over a couple of major details... 1) I was trying to send "listen" command to Chimera before I'd launched Chimera (!) 2) once that was corrected, noticed I had a "list stop selection" command being sent from somewhere else in my code I am now starting to get notifications from Chimera (using 'url' rather than 'rest', as suggested).

I think that keyword may have been changed at some point and the code and documentation got out of sync (strictly my fault). Let me know if that does not fix things.

Hi,
I am trying out a REST listener for selections in Chimera and need help.
I can talk to Chimera over REST.
I can start an Http listener in Jalview - and verify it in my browser.
I have sent this command to Chimera:
listen start selection rest http://134.36.162.131:64745/
Then silence. I haven't managed to provoke Chimera into sending me a SelectionChanged notification.
I am making selections in the Chimera window - as I can see by the 'Inspect Selection' panel.
I have also started Chimera standalone (no REST service) and tried the listen command in the command line, but yet to see any output on a selection.
What have I missed or how can I diagnose what I am doing wrong here?
