Hi,

I want to rotate a copy of my molecule around the x axis (axis of symmetery) by 120 and then save the new coordinates alongwith the original protein coordinates.

I used this command to rotate the copy
$copy move [trans x by 120]

but I get the following error:

invalid bareword "by"
in expression "by 120 + 0.0";
should be "$by" or "{by}" or "by(...)" or ...

Could anyone let me know whats the right command.

Thanks,
Sujata
