it would be very useful to have a way to access different sub-categories
of hydrogen bonds, though:

   select hbonds interchain
   select hbonds sidechain
   select hbonds mainchain


but I think the default should be to color all hbonds white, inheriting the CPK color for hydrogen. and there should be no code-level distinction between protein and nucleic hydrogen bonds - one can easily build selections to tweak those apart. IMO of course :-) KIS (keep it simple).

and then there's intrachain sidechain-mainchain, interchain sidechain-mainchain.... It's a clever scheme they've come up with. I was having some fun displaying proteins with just the hydrogen bonds indicated. It is quite interesting how much information is there just with this clever little offset business. I think you would find sidechain/mainchain/interchain/intrachain issues very confusing to anyone but the experts, and they will happily color them specially anyway if they feel it's important.
