I am trying to determine how to specify multiple variable modifications in
the comet.params file.

I have stable isotope labeled primary amines so I need to specify 2
different mods on K and the N-terminus.

Tandem uses [ to specify the N-terminus.  What notation does Comet use?

In the below example, I am guessing (probably incorrectly) "n" is used for
denoting the N-terminus to Comet.  Will this work?  In Tandem, a similar
approach would not work but there is a work around.  For Comet, would I
have to run two searches one for heavy and another for light using the
"variable_N_terminus= " line in the comet.params for specifying the
N-terminus?

variable_mod1 = 15.9949 M 0 3
variable_mod2 = 42.04695 nK 0 3
variable_mod3 = 48.084606 nK 0 3


Thanks in advance for any help.
