'''Save the state script into a file:''' Block select the entire state script in the upper frame of the Jmol Script Console window. (On Macs, you'll have to use the mouse for this.) Copy the entire state script into a text editing program. On '''Macs''', you'll have to '''drag the blocked text and drop it''' into the text editor program. Save the state script into a file named e.g. yourMolecule_state.spt. The file type '''.spt''' signifies that this is a Jmol script. Be sure to save it as plain text. On Macs, plain text editors are TextEdit (comes with OS X; select ''Make Plain Text'' on the ''Format'' menu),  and TextWrangler (free from [http://barebonessoftware.com BareBoneSoftware]).
