Also, if the violation criteria were uniform, or only depended on  
heavy-atom element types or atom types, then it wouldn't be too hard  
to write a Python script to color the pseudobonds after they were read  
in.  More sophisticated analysis that noeshow was capable of, such as  
exponential averaging across an ensemble of structures, would be some  
work though.
