Hi Bob, Thanks for your message.
Your suggestions would be great if I knew a priori what the atom labels up to the '?' were, but I don't. I need a wildcard filter that selects all atoms whose names end with (or even just contain) a literal '?'. Before I had this problem, as a new Jmol user I assumed I would be able to select an atom expression something like this: *\? meaning any CIF atom with a name than ends with a literal '?'. It must match any start (i.e. any atom type and number). I guess the reason this is currently impossible is because there is no way to escape the '*' or '?' wildcard characters. Is there any chance that this might be possible in the future?
