[phenixbb] how to remove hydrogen from pdb

So I guess your contribution at this point in the thread is just to be 
as difficult as possible ?  I dare say if you use it on PROTIN format it 
won't work either.

Try it on a file that actually puts out something that conforms to the 
PDB standard with the element line at the end, not something that almost 
conforms to the standard, has non-distinct index numbers, apparently 
missing spaces on the GLY:N atom.

I would hope, modulo the usual list of bugs, that phenix.refine actually 
writes out something more closely resembling the correct format, in 
which case Tim's regular expression would actually work.
