Hi Xplor Staff,

I'm a newer user who's been attempting a refinement of a crystal structure of a 
protein using backbone chemical shifts and amide RDCs. I've had some success in 
getting the calculations to work using RDCs and backbone dihedral angle 
restraints predicted from TALOS, but I encountered an odd error when using 
trying to use the chemical shifts themselves as restraints via sparta. Here's a 
snippit of what I did.
from spartaPotTools import create_SpartaPot
cs = create_SpartaPot(name="cs", filename="shifts.txt", format="talos")
potList.append(cs)
When xplor hits the second line in that block of code, I get the following 
error:

SystemError: xplor-nih error: error reading restraint: selection resid 10 and 
name C must select one or two atoms

This corresponds to the first line of data in my chemical shift file. I tried 
to work around it by using the convertRestraints function to convert the 
contents of the file into XPLOR format, then iterating through the keys of the 
dictionary, but I got essentially the same error.

I don't think my file is formatted wrong, but it does start from the 10th 
residue of the structure file I loaded in. Not sure whether or not that could 
be the culprit. Any idea what I'm doing incorrectly?

Thanks so much!
-CJ
