Map Trim introduced in PyMol 0.99beta11, gives the user the ability to cut out a section of a map and read it back in as a completely new map. This was not previously possible prior to 0.99beta11. (Windows build at PyMol Beta or compile from source).
Usage
map_trim map-name, selection-name, buffer

map_trim *, organic, 3

map_double *
