Hi, Bob,

1. YES I will be very interested to test a new release in the next few days.

2. I think the largest number of altlocs is 22 (A-V) in 1zir. The altloc stats were kindly updated for all entries by Jaime Prilusky:
http://oca.weizmann.ac.il/reports/altLocations.txt

So I don't think there has ever been a need for distinguishing altlocs by upper vs. lower case (unlike chains). Numerals are also permitted as altloc IDs (2plt, 1tal) so there are at least 36 permissible IDs available.

So I think the case independence of altloc=A/altloc=a is what we want, and %a should find %A (but currently does not).

    Dear Bob,

    Here are three possible bugs (minor ones).

    ITEM ONE:

    "select %a" fails to select altloc="a".
    "select %A" succeeds.
    I report this "in case" it is a bug.


Are there both "A" and "a"?


    Jmol Aug 13:

    $ print _version
    1403016
    $ load =1bsz
    HYDROLASE                               01-SEP-98   1BSZ
    PEPTIDE DEFORMYLASE AS FE2+ CONTAINING FORM (NATIVE) IN COMPLE
    INHIBITOR POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL
    found biomolecule 1: A
    found biomolecule 2: B
    found biomolecule 3: C

    $ select altloc="A"
    74 atoms selected
    $ select altloc="a"
    74 atoms selected
    $ select %A
    74 atoms selected
    $ select %a
    0 atoms selected
    $


$ load =1bsz as 1bsz.pdb
1bsz.pdb created
$ print  {*}.altloc.pivot
{
  ""  :  4272
  "A"  :  74
  "B"  :  74
  "C"  :  10
 }

    ITEM TWO:
    The doc, under Atom Expressions,
    under " RasMol biomolecular residue specifications"
    says:

    %altLoc    %1 %A %?

    Either the doc needs revision, or %? is not working (should be
    same as "not %" I think)

    $ select %?
    script compiler ERROR: invalid model specification
    ----
             select %? <<<<
    $ select %*
    4430 atoms selected
    $ select all
    4430 atoms selected
    $ select %
    4272 atoms selected
    $ select not %
    158 atoms selected
    $ print 4272 + 158
    4430


doc error.

    ITEM THREE:
    Note that the first line of the PDB TITLE field is truncated in
    the above report following the load command. Here are the first 3
    lines of the PDB file with the lost portion in red:

    HEADER    HYDROLASE 01-SEP-98   1BSZ
    TITLE     PEPTIDE DEFORMYLASE AS FE2+ CONTAINING FORM (NATIVE) IN
    COMPLEX WITH
    TITLE    2 INHIBITOR POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL


Ah --- right -- because some files have the PDB number in columns starting with column 72. But I can test for that in the HEADER record.

OK, that is fixed.

I have a major update in prep. Are you able to test it in the next days, Eric?

Bob

    Best regards, Eric
