Hi Clark,
based on my experience, I don't know such a program or script. I seems that
there is not a clear standard of how to judge the boundary of a lipid and
lipid bilayer. I suggest you to write a program where you set your
definition, and this might be good for the readers of your research to
follow.
Best,
Boyang
