EXAMPLE 

# create the pseudoatom
pseudoatom tmpPoint, pos=[10, 10, 10]
# show it as a sphere.
show spheres, tmpPoint
 
# create another, with more options.
pseudoatom tmpPoint2, resi=40, chain=ZZ, b=40, color=tv_blue, pos=[-10, 0, 10]
 
# working example
load $TUT/1hpv.pdb
pseudoatom tmp, pos=[10.0, 17.0, -3.0]
