('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) hello,

using VMD 1. 85

when I run VMD and enter the following in the tk console:

animatepdbs 0 0 5 run.pdb
saltbr -sel [atomselect top all]

it works perfectly and I get my salt bridge results.

However, I need to call VMD from a script like this:

vmd -dispdev text -e vmd_calls.txt

in vmd_calls.txt, I have the exact same 2 lines:

animatepdbs 0 0 5 run.pdb
saltbr -sel [atomselect top all]

and I get the error:

invalid command name "saltbr"


thanks in advance for any help.
