you could use solid (or dashed) monitor lines, but you would have to build the 
script yourself.  this requires that you know the atom numbers of the hydrogen 
bond donors and acceptors:

monitor atomno1 atomno2

but the command syntax is (obviously) very simple.


I'll be happy to help out with some kind of routine, if possible given you 
rdata structure. if you are interested, feel free to email me off list.
