Sorry, there is a mistake in my previous mail. I have use "$bad" and not
"bad" in the command:
foreach segid [$bad get segid] resid [$bad get resid] { ...

And of course, I have checked that my selection is not empty ;-). It
contains 15 residues.

    in the above line have you tried with $bad not just bad?
    also you could check to be sure bad has atoms in it ($bad num)
