Hi,

I have several hundred structure simulations that were performed on our HPC resource. Each simulation has approximately 5 models associated with it. I also have HMM model homologies for each of these proteins.

I would like to use chimera's matchmaker function to compare the simulated structured to their nearest 'real' counterpart with a resolved structure. In order to do this I plan to script chimera to pull in the simulated models as well as the near homolog and then run the matchmaker algorithm.

My question is: can the RMSD value that is returned in the reply log be 'accessed directly' such that for each match that is performed, I can obtain the RMSD and thus a ranking for the best fitting structures - or will it require parsing the reply log?

Thanks
