John, Justin

Thankyou both for your involvement.

I have included versions and platforms below, which I hope will help you
help me.

Just a note before you look at them: whilst I may possibly have
PYTHONHOME wrong the problem is more profound than that: I cannot even
find animate.py, atomselection.py etc on my hard drive. They just don't
seem to be there.

???Where would you expect them to be???

Version Information:

VMD:
I am currently running 1.8.1.
I have previously run 1.8 and 1.6
In none of the installations of the software (1.8, 1.8.1, 1.6) have I
been able to locate those files.

Python:
Python 2.2.1 (#1, Aug 30 2002, 12:15:30)
[GCC 3.2 20020822 (Red Hat Linux Rawhide 3.2-4)] on linux2

Platform:
VMD Atholon MP2200+

Thanks again: I would be very happy if we manage to fix this.

Paul

Dear Paul,
  Can you tell us what version of VMD you're running, and on which
platform?
We should be able to provide more help once we know what version and OS
you're running with. The more info the better.

Thanks,
