I think that 'select carbon' and 'select *.c??' should almost always give the same results. You need the question marks in order to explicitly include the 'greek' letters and the numbers (which are sometimes present). Here is my guess. RasMol infers the element type from each atom when a file is read in. 'select carbon' uses this inferred element type. select *.c uses a (case-insensitive) pattern match directly against the .pdb field. >> Jmol should not support single letter residue abbreviations. >> We will require 3 letter abbreviations for residues > I agree without reservation, only adding that full residue names should > be acceptable as well. Sounds fine. Are some of them multiple words? Is glutamate the same as glutamic acid? We need to restrict ourselves to single words.
