Change in `get` behavior

[Eigenstate]

1. You need to provide more detail than "changes in behavior" for me to be able to do anything. What is the expected output? What is the output you're getting? I can't just glance at your code and see how the new release affects your function call. What Python version? What OS?

2. I don't know why you're using the TCL interface and parsing the output when native Python functionality has always existed for atomsel.

chains = safely_parsed_evaltcl("$%s get chain" % selection_id)
is trivially:
selection.chains
(or in vmd-python 2.*, selection.get("chains") which is backwards compatible but will emit DeprecationWarning in vmd-python 3. )
Please read the documentation for atomsel: https://vmd.robinbetz.com/atomsel.html

Re-writing your code to make full use of the vmd-python interface may fix the problems you're seeing.

1. The related issue is right there along with the stack-trace and reported OS. I wasn't asking to fix our code, just whether there were expected changes related to the get-functionality.
2. I don't know either as I didn't write it. Your suggested syntax looks way nicer than what we're currently doing, so will try that out. Thanks!

Fixed in version 3.0.5
