I did read the documentation on atomExpression and could not figure out the exact syntax from there - what I was missing was a few examples like yours. Would it make sense to put some examples there, or did I miss that, too? (possible!)

So noted. Atom expressions can be incredibly complex. I don't know how much could be added to the documentation in that regard. Maybe you can suggest some very specific (few) examples.

My guess is that Angel's two examples might cover 80% of cases ... (yes, there are faster methods for more specific questions, but atomno is unbeatable wrt generality)

Better to get Angel's book! :)

Point taken - this sounds like a useful thing to have for our library, in fact. (if I still remember a week from now, when I next have time)

It's just that you cannot specify atom numbers that way.

structure HELIX (atomno=17, atomno=18, atomno=19,    etc
or
structure HELIX (atomno>=17 and atomno<=19, atomno>=27 and atomno<=29, etc


Thanks for your help, and sorry about the perhaps silly follow-up questions.

No problem, we are here to learn and to help
