<li>Simple examples of adding annotation are provided in the <a href="http://www.uwosh.edu/faculty_staff/gutow/Jmol_Web_Page_Maker/Export_to_web_tutorial.shtml">Export-to-Web
tutorial</a>, which also describes how to use the downloaded document to
embed the live image in an arbitrary web page.</li>
<li>More detailed information on changing the way Jmol displays
things using Jmol commands is available in the <a href="http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">J</span></a><a href="http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/">mol scripting

and the <a href="http://wiki.jmol.org/">Jmol wiki</a>.</li>
<li>It is also possible to use Jmol commands to adjust the display
within Sage. To do this
right-click (control-click) in the applet window to get the applet
pop-up menu. In the advanced submenu select "Console". You
can type Jmol script commands into the console.</li>
