It is not quite clear to me what you are asking. Can you provide a small example file and give some more detailed descriptions of what you did and what kind of error you got or what the undesired result was.

Axel.

Subject: vmd-l: atoms selection/special characters

Dear vmd Users,
I do have a question which I suppose must be an easy one! I have loaded my
structure into vmd and would like to select some atoms whose names/types
are O- or H* but vmd does not understand these combinations. Same as if I
want to select an atom with charge -1 (for instance I want to have a
selection as "charge -1"). I will be appreciated for any comment on this.
Thanks
Fatima
