[phenixbb] Multiple TLS groups per molecule

As usual, very helpful.  Thanks!

One more question.  When you refine in subsequent rounds I read that
phenix.refine will refine as anisotropic because of the ANISOU labels
attached to the PDB. Is it necessary to enter something like
"stragegy=tls+isotropic"? I am just worried that if I explicitly ask for
individual isotropic refinement this might occur without tls refinement.
