I have not had experience with this kind of problem, but my feelings are: 1.- I would expect "select 2-3" to select all residues nr.2 and all nr.3 (thatis, 4 resideus in the example), irrespective of their order in the pdb file. "select 1-5" would select all 10 residues. "select 3- 2" would either be invalid (don't see the need to issue such a command) or equivalent to "select 2-3", whichever way it works in Rasmol
2.- I would try what Rasmol selects in each case and Jmol should do the same --for the same notation of command--. If new Jmol-specific syntax (like those regular expression proposed by Rolf) are created, that is OK, as long as the are **new**. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Jmol-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jmol-users
