[Chimera-users] IDLE for listing selected residues.

Hi everyone,

I'd like to use chimera to generate the list of the oxygen atoms of the
water molecules located at less than 5.0 A of a ligand.

Selecting the water molecules have been the easiest part...
select :HOH & :301.a zr < 5.0

with :301.a my ligand.

Then in the IDLE, I tried a series of alternative to generate the list.
I use the different tips that were posted in the digest recently and
arrived to this:

for i in range(1,len(chimera.selection.currentResidues()):
	print chimera.selection.currentResidues()[i]

Right, this gives me the list of residues, unfortunately, that would be
a LOOOT better for me is to have the Serial number of the oxygen
atoms...

currentSerialNum and currentSerialNumber do not see to be a correct
selection type. If there is any way that can do this?

Thanks a lot
JD
