Thank you Nigel!
I'll try this immediately.
...in the meantime, I still have a question for you : will this handle
as well the coordination with atoms on symmetry-related protein
neighbors? (don't see those in the elbow.edits that
phenix.metal_coordination generates...or am I missing something silly here?)
