Hi folks.
I've been using the following command to select a group of atoms within a
certain distance of a selection

set sel [atomselect top "name ETA and within 7 of (index 1 to 10)"]

What i want it to do is select every atom within 7 of *any one of the*
atoms in the curved bracket.

I'm worried that instead it's picking a smaller selection, i.e. every atom
that is within 7 of *all* atoms in the curved bracket.

Can you set my mind to rest? And if i'm doing it wrong, can you tell me
what i should type instead?
