The only thing I can imagine is that there is indeed some overload in doing the selections. Maybe Jmol has to go over all atoms (quite a lot of them in 500pb, right?) checking for their name each time.
If your atom numbers are correlative, as in your example select C73, N74, C75, O76, N77, C78, O79, C80, C81, C82; color [0, 72, 0]; Try this: select (atomno>=73 and atomno<=82); color [0, 72, 0]; ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
