Need braces there on that one since it is not a legacy Jmol command.


myAtomSet = {_Cl and within(6, @6)}

for example. "var" would localize that definition to a given {...}
enclosure.

load nacl.mol
myAtomSet = {_Cl and within(6, @6)}
print myatomset
({0 1 3:5 7 10 15 19 21:23})
color {myatomset} blue
color @myatomset green
