Hi Simon,
That seems to be generated by the loading process of QwikMD (I would say beta version). This error comes up when there is an error in the syntax of the “after idle” command in the .vmdrc (Linux and Mac) or vmd.rc (windows). Did you edit the vmdrc file to load a newer version of QwikMD? If you did, please make sure that you have no typo on it. If you are using a windows machine, please use the text editor in VMD (Extensions-> Data-> Text Editor) to make sure that you have the spaces in the correct place and all the paths are defined correctly.
I hope this helps
Best
João

Hi everyone.
I’m a newcomer so I’m using QwikMD. Previously it’s worked okay but today when I open VMD I get the message:
Wrong # args: should be “after idle script script …”
Wrong # args: should be “set varName ?newValue?”
The qwikmd package could not be loaded:
I have no idea what any of this means, let alone how to fix it. Please can someone help? Thanks very much,
Simon
