#34 Cannot select atom names with parentheses or quotes

[Andrius Merkys]

Dear developers,

I can not find a way to select atoms in CIFs that have parentheses or quotes in their atom labels using Jmol script 'select ...'. An example CIF file with parentheses in atom labels: www.crystallography.net/cod/1501919.cif@176729. Is there a way to get around this (other than selecting by atom numbers)?

Best,
Andrius
