Saving a session

Once you have the molecule in a format that you would like to save, select the ``Save session'' option under the ``File'' menu. Type in a name for the file, and click on the ``Save to local disk'' button to save it, or ``Cancel'' to cancel. On Suns and Linux boxes, it will save the files in the directory you started your browser, if you have permission to write files there. On Windows machines, it will save the files in the default home directory. Saved JMV session end with the extension ``.jmv''. This file contains data about the current session of the JMV molecule, including the file, representation, color, and orientation. You also have the option of saving a JPEG. If the ``Save a JPEG of the JMV image?'' button is checked, a JPEG file will be saved with the same name as the .jmv file, but with the extension ``.jpg''. This is a picture of the JMV molecule window.
