#
#  Draw an axis given a point and a direction.  Optionally give color,
#  length and width.
#
#  Usage: from the pymol menu click file->run...  then find this file.
#  Then at the prompt, type
#
#           draw_axis x,y,z, i,k,j
#
#  where (x,y,z) is the point and (i,k,j) is the direction
#
#
#  Also one can run the script as follows
#
#
#           draw_axis x,y,z, i,k,j, length r,g,b, width,
#
#  where (r,g,b) is the color for the line in red, green, colors,
#  width is the thickness of the line and length is the length of the
#  line.
#
#
#  For a fun example of the script run from the command line after the
#  script is loaded
#
#           draw_axis_example
#
