Hi François, Yes "chimera --send" is broken in Chimera 1.6 but fixed in the daily builds a few days ago. Here is a way to fix your Chimera 1.6 if you prefer to continue using the production release To fix "chimera --send" in Chimera 1.6 change line 71 of the following file chimera/share/send_to_chimera.py in your chimera distribution from web_file = "chim_webinfo-%s" % username to web_file = "chimera_webinfo-%s" % username (the "chim_" is now "chimera_").

Hi all, I want to be able to interact with Chimera from another program, sending commands and all. I tried the chimera --send my_file.com to test it under MacOS 10.7. Each time I do this, it opens a new instance (instead of reusing the previous one) and doesn't process my_file.com at all. When I open my_file.com from inside chimera, it operates the commands inside it without any problem. Any idea?
