Summary: bond selection

Initial Comment:
it would be very helpful, if Jmol would accept
something like

 bond [T]1:D.O4 [T]1:D.C5M +

too, in addition to

 bond 259 261 +

(which itself is not implemented yet:-)

Jmol 11 implements "connect" which accomplishes this.

Several things. 

1. Allowing sets in addition to atom numbers would be very
difficult, given the current interpreter infrastructure. The
statements which take expressions as arguments are
well-defined. Having a statement which sometimes takes an
expression and sometimes takes other things is currently not
possible. 

2. I do not understand the RasMol 2.7 doc for 'bond <number>
<number> +' 

Q: What possible motivation could there have been for
requiring the '+' ? 

Q: Shouldn't the third parameter to 'bond' be a bond order? 

3. I will not implement 'rotate around a bond'
