pymolrc file and his crystallographic software wiki and website, including instructions on how to install precompiled binary packages using fink.

FreeMOL installation for MPEG movie export.

You can also set up an alias in your ~/.profile: If this happens to you, a workaround is to launch PyMOL explicitly in Mono mode with `pymol -M`. Some older Macs seem to crash with stereo graphics. The fink pymol package is already preconfigured to do the right thing to use apbs as a plugin. Will install apbs and its required dependencies for you. If you have multiple processors available, you might wish to install the MPI version of APBS. These are also available as Fink packages, and include APBS, maloc and pdb2pqr. To use the electrostatics plugin, you will need APBS and its dependencies. That way the OpenGL context will be created with stereo support. The trick to getting MacPyMOL to work in stereo on the second monitor is to force it to initially open on that display by providing an appropriate '-X #' (and perhaps -Y #) option on launch.

Launch the unix executable with the -m flag: /Applications/MacPyMOL.app/Contents/MacOS/MacPyMOL -m.

Rename or copy/duplicate /Applications/MacPyMOL.app to /Applications/MacPyMOLX11Hybrid.app or to /Applications/PyMOLX11Hybrid.app.There are two ways to launch the X11 interface: This GUI has some additional features, like the Plugin menu and the Builder. MacPyMOL can optionally run with the same two-window GUI which PyMOL uses on Windows and Linux. If you use Homebrew (and you should), eventually you may need to install XQuartz, 'open-source effort to develop a version of the X.Org X Window System that runs on OS X. The unix executable resides at /Applications/PyMOL.app/Contents/MacOS/PyMOL X11 Hybrid Uninstallation: Move /Applications/PyMOL.app to Trash (In principle, you could drag it into any Finder window and run it from there, it doesnРІР‚в„ўt have to live in /Applications). Installation: Drag PyMOL.app on the /Applications shortcut.

The bundle also includes ready-to-use APBS, RigiMOL, an MPEG encoder for movie export, and a small molecule energy minimization engine. SchrР“В¶dinger provides pre-compiled PyMOL to paying sponsors.
