Hi Greg,
	There is no capability for that now.  I expect that capability in the  
1.5 release, and will add your name to the Trac ticket for that  
enhancement, so you will automatically get notified when it gets  
implemented.  In the interim, if you execute the attached Python  
script the hbond donor terminus will be moved to the appropriate  
proton.  Execute the script simple by opening it with File...Open or  
with the "open" command.
