Jmol currently supports this.

Every atom type is determined. Any atom that cannot be recognized gets turned into element 0 with atomic symbol Xx. It has a mass and a radius. > 4> center [centers] selected The other 'center' is a 'unitcell' Maybe I can do this. But maybe I will need to change it to be two separate commands. set center average|boundbox|mass|unitcell center <atom-expression> Then, the existing center command would work the same way, taking an atom expression.
