Description

Here is a small plugin to color proteins according to residue type. Save the following text as "resicolor.py" in your somewhere/PyMOL/modules/pmg_tk/startup directory, and it should add itself to the plugin menu at the next pymol startup. This functionality is also available as a script (resicolor).
