With a smallmolecule modulator of a protein, no problem in specifying "name
xyz" as the name of the atom of interest.

With the aminoacids of the protein, I am unable to specify an atom of just
one of the aminoacids - and only that one - which are in contact with the
small molecule. My poor knowledge of the tcl language may be responsible.

Actually, I am interested in the energy of residue-residue interaction.
However, H-bond interaction of the smallmolecule modulator with a water
molecule, when calculated from residue-residue interaction, gives too high
values for H-bonds. So that I am curious about the atom-atom interaction
energy for these and other cases.

Thanks
