why psfgen?

$sel writepsf protein.psf

does the trick nicely. you don't need any angle,
dihedral, etc definition for visualization.

but angles & co. are supported in the latest alpha
version of the code. in addition i'm there is an API
and a tcl package to manipulate bond, angle, etc. definitions.

i'm currently working on additional scripts on top of
that to import or export this information from/to external
files, e.g. lammps data files (this is what our group needs).

just write one and send it in.
