Both. "NO" is a reserved word ... as are all script tokens. But in your context it is a Jmol bug. When there are square brackets around it within the context of an atom expression ... as in [NO] ... then it should be acceptable. > Q: Is there a list of "reserved words" available for Jmol? There is not a published list of reserved words. The list is the set of all standalone tokens that occur in the scripting language. The fact that this does not work is a bug: select [NO]400A This is behaving correctly in that it is not legal to redefine the keyword 'no' define NO 400A & hetero Miguel ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
