[Chimera-users] write selected command

Great suggestion, I'll just use cat and strip the END lines. Since I want to then use these with morph conformations will I also have to resequence the atom id's?

Other possibilities include using the "combine" command to combine  
models 6, 8, and 9 into a single model (with model 0 as the 'refMol')  
and then use the write command on that (omitting 'relative 0'), or  
writing the models to separate files and using 'system cat file1 file2  
file3 > file4' to combine them (though there would be END records  
between the models that way).
