In the long term we do intend to have something along those lines in lieu of the simple “Python scripts page http://plato.cgl.ucsf.edu/trac/chimera/wiki/Scripts” that we have for Chimera. It may be awhile though. We also have to work out how to allow relevant people to edit it without allowing everyone on the internet to edit it…

Hi Eric,
Thank you for your reply! We're generally looking for a script library/repository similar to what PyMOL's wiki has (https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Category:Script_Library https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Category:Script_Library). Some scripts we use already have a command in ChimeraX with the same functionality. An example of a script we use in PyMOL would be BbPlane, however we're more interested in script libraries as a general resource rather than replacing exact scripts, as we use so many different scripts in the course. Like I said, I understand that ChimeraX is still in early stages so we're more looking to get a sense of whether this kind of feature will ever exist.

Hi Lauren, If you outlined the missing features you would need, we could provide some idea if those features will become available soon or… not soon. —Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab

Currently, the course is taught using PyMOL, but we would like to transfer to ChimeraX in the future. A large portion of the course relies on publically available scripts designed for PyMOL that currently do not have equivalents for ChimeraX. We are wondering if there are plans to have a ChimeraX wiki with scripting resources similar to PyMOL at some point, or whether we'd need to write any python scripts ourselves? Of course I understand that ChimeraX is still developing, I'd just like to get a sense of whether we can reasonably transfer the course to ChimeraX in the future. Thank you for your time.
