 Hi,

I have been trying to create Tachyon eoptential figures using vmd. When I
render it manually via the GUI it works, but when I try to render these
figures via a script, sometimes the rendering gets stuck at some %
completion. it results in incomplete rendered pictures and sometimes I have
to manually kill it. Can you please help? Following is the script I use.
