I don't think should be an "option". I don't think there is any case for SSM in NCS detection: it _must_ in register, or it's not NCS

I have already made an LSQ option for NCS detection which sits on my
hard drive and will be included in due time (next few hrs/days),
certainly for 0.5.1!

On the subject of NCS chains, Paul, I note that you are still using

SSM superposition in determining NCS operators (unless it's been
changed _very_ recently), rather than the LSQ algorithm which would

preserve the sequence register. SSM gets the wrong answer in some
cases, eg in some coiled-coil proteins such as BAR domains, where
an
out-of-register SSM superposition can give a lower score than the
in-
register one, and of course the correct NCS must be in register.

You did say quite a long time ago that you going to change this  :-)

Best wishes
Phil
