Dear all
I have noticed a (related?) CRYST1 problem/bug/feature. 
superposing 2 molecules in 2 different cells, and saving the moved molecule, 
changed the CRYST1 record of the saved file to the one from the reference 
molecule. 

original pdb
CRYST1   60.400   72.150  133.010  90.00  90.00  90.00 P 21 21 21
SCALE1      0.016556  0.000000  0.000000        0.00000
SCALE2      0.000000  0.013860  0.000000        0.00000
SCALE3      0.000000  0.000000  0.007518        0.00000

after coot SSM and save_as
CRYST1   69.675   39.000   36.255  90.00 111.69  90.00 C 1 2 1                  
SCALE1      0.014352  0.000000  0.005709        0.00000                         
SCALE2      0.000000  0.025641  0.000000        0.00000                         
SCALE3      0.000000  0.000000  0.029684        0.00000                         

this generates very funny results in PyMol. Changing the CRYST record after 
saving to the original cell seems to fix this, but surely the CRYST record 
should stay the same upon loading and saving a pdb-file?

I wonder if this is to do with me? I am running coot on a MBP, snow leopard, 
and just upgraded to the latest version of everything using the latest builds 
from Bill Scott. Let me know if I have left out some crucial information. 

sorry if this should have come up before but I could not find it in the 
archives.
