PyMOL on windows

From: https://github.com/igem-waterloo/uwaterloo-igem-2015/wiki/PyMOL-and-PyRosetta-Setup-for-Windows

installation

Adapted from http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/Windows_Install#Pre-compiled_PyMOL

  1. Create a folder (e.g. C:\PyMOL_Install) to hold the files
  2. From http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ download:
    • pymol-1.7.6.0-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl
    • pymol_launcher-1.0-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl
    • numpy-1.9.2+mkl-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl
    • Pmw-2.0.0-py2-none-any.whl
  3. Move the files to the folder you created
  4. Start a command prompt, and move to the directory you saved the files in:
    cd C:\PyMOL_Install
  5. Assuming you added python to you path earlier, run the command:
    python -m pip install --no-index --find-link="%CD%" --pre pymol_launcher-1.0-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl
  6. If there are errors, try installing the .whl files in this order: numpy, Pmw, pymol-1.7.6.0, pymol_launcher
  7. If there are no errors, you should be able start PyMOL using C:\Python27\PyMOL.exe
  8. Create a shortcut on your desktop to make starting PyMOL easier.
