Basic scripting not working

[Zengief]

So along with not being able to import recipes, I am not able to run recipes that I copy as text. Well at least the scripts don't seem to work.
So I ran a very basic test. I created a recipe consisting of exactly one line:

do_global_wiggle_all(3)

I saved it and ran it and the only thing that happened was that I got little popup words saying

"Can't start wiggle"

So either I am failing to understand something very basic about recipes, or there is a larger issue with scripting altogether.

My machine:
Win 7 64 bit
Intel Core2 Quad
4 GB ram

You need SELECT some sgmnts to wiggle.
Switch to new interfeace and select what U want to wiggle or add select_all() b4 wiggle.

Thank you! My problem WAS a failure of understanding one of the basics. Here I presume that global wiggle all would wiggle all for the entire protein when that is not the case. Good to know.

I tried it with a select first and it works great.
thanks raven
