Be careful of the newlines in the sourced file.

Check whether the command in the file is
mol addfile ciao.dcd type dcd first 5000 last -1 step 1
or
mol addfile ciao.dcd type dcd first 5000

last -1 step 1

Regards

Salvatore

Subject: vmd-l: VMD text mode commands

Dear All,
             I am using VMD in test mode (vmd -dispdev text ). I run the following commands in vmd command prompt and are working good. But I write same commands in a script.tcl and script is sourced in command prompt, it gives an error "invalid command name "last"". I will appreciate any suggestion to over come this problem.

mol new .psf type psf
mol addfile .dcd type dcd first 5000 last -1 step 1

Thanks and regards,
Subbarao Kanchi.
