Hi Nathan, I guess you are not using the Python that comes with ChimeraX. You should start ChimeraX and use the ChimeraX command "open /path/to/myscript.py" to open it. Tom

To Whom it May Concern,
My name is Nathan Wood and I am currently a Google Summer of Code Intern with the OpenChemistry Group. Currently I am currently in the process of replacing Visualizing Molecular Dynamics (VMD) with ChimeraX as a means to visualizing computationally generated electrostatic potential diagrams. To accomplish this I am having to use the Python API in a script.
However, I am having difficulties enabling the Python API. When I execute a Tutorials example found in the online developer's documentation, I receive the error:
ImportError: No module named chimerax.core.commands
which suggests that the python modules were never installed properly. I also recieve similar errors when attempting to import the toolshed.
Otherwise, the ChimeraX GUI and its shell work properly and I am unsure how to resolve the API error.
I am currently using the Generic Linux 64 Bit Daily Release and can provide more information if necessary.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
