Not accessing installed DSSP from bio3d

Issue #719 closed
Former user created an issue

Hi, I installed DSSP but it the installation is called mkhssp instead. When I try to run DSSP in bio3d it throws the error:

input: dssp(pdb)

output: Error in .get.exepath(exefile) : could not determine path to 'dssp'

When I try to point it towards mkhssp (which is correctly installed - i can call it from anywhere in terminal) I get the error:

input: 
dssp(pdb)

output: 
Error in paste(exefile, ver) : object 'ver' not found

R version 3.5.3 (2019-03-11) Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin15.6.0 (64-bit) Running under: macOS 10.15.3

Do you have any sense of why bio3d is not able to access DSSP/mkhssp? Thanks, Willow

    Hi, you can explicitly tell the function what command (and also the path if you choose to) you want to call. For example, dssp(pdb, exefile='mkdssp').
