What do you mean by "doesn't resolve to anything"?  Maybe it's an issue
with capitalization - the correct command is "phenix.MRage".  (Although on
Mac this probably won't matter, but I'll add "phenix.mrage" as a synonym
just in case.)

Is there a new way to launch MR jobs from the command line (which had all

phenix.phaser only runs in CCP4-style mode if there are no command-line
arguments; otherwise it uses PHIL.  If you run this command:

phenix.phaser --show_defaults

it will print out the full parameters, and there is also some support for
simpler command-line arguments:

phenix.phaser model.pdb data.mtz sequence.fa model_rmsd=1.5 search_copies=2
component_copies=2

However, unless you're trying to develop some kind of automation on top of
Phaser, this is pretty close to the bottom of our list of support
priorities, hence the lack of documentation.
