"load" and "delete" Commands on PyMol

This section provides a tutorial on how to load and delete molecule on PyMol using the 'load' and 'delete' commands.

You can use "load" and "delete" commands to load and delete molecule structure on PyMol.

For example, the following command loads a molecule structure from an SDF file:

PyMOL>load /Users/herong/Molecule-HY-001.sdf

CmdLoad: loaded as "Molecule-HY-001".

If you want to delete all objects of the displayed molecule (including the molecule itself), you can use the following command:

PyMOL>delete all
