select thingy, id 688+689+690+1247+1259+1961+1862

 - for some reason, 688-690... doesn't seem to work for me
 - i've had problems with id in the past .. PyMOL used to re-number
   things, but i don't think it re-numbers them these days (i could easily
   be wrong about this)
 - be careful in scripts: 'id' is a builtin python function.  if you're
   using it as a variable name, use something like ID instead.

you could also use

select thingy, 87/CG+OD1+OD2 or 157/OG or 159/OG1 or 234/CZ3+CH2

actually, the second way seems more meaningful to me anyway.

Greetings,

I want to define and display a patch of functionally related atoms on a
protein-- but only the individual atoms of interest, not the entire
residues to which they might belong.  Is there a way to select atoms by
their serial number in the PDB file, rather than name or residue
membership?  Failing a direct selection, is there another way I can group
multiple, disparate atoms into a single selection?

This is the best I've come up with so far, using residue and name:

To group the following atoms:

   ATOM    688  CG  ASP A  87
   ATOM    689  OD1 ASP A  87
   ATOM    690  OD2 ASP A  87
   ATOM   1247  OG  SER A 157
   ATOM   1259  OG1 THR A 159
   ATOM   1861  CZ3 TRP A 234
   ATOM   1862  CH2 TRP A 234

I give the following four selection commands:

   select a87, (resi 87 and name CG,OD1,OD2)
   select a157, (resi 157 and name OG)
   select a159, (resi 159 and name OG1)
   select a234, (resi 234 and name CZ3,CH2)

Which leaves me with with 4 separate selections.  What's the most
efficient way to get a single selection or object out of this?

Many thanks in advance,

-Jon Binkley
