Trim a MOL2 Object To A Subset of Atoms.

Description

Produce a new smaller MOL2 object, containing a subset of atoms, from a given larger MOL2 object.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'mol2'
trim(mol, ..., inds = NULL)

Arguments

mol

a MOL2 structure object obtained from read.mol2.

...

additional arguments passed to atom.select. If inds is also provided, these arguments will be ignored.

inds

a list object of ATOM and XYZ indices as obtained from atom.select. If NULL, atom selection will be obtained from calling atom.select(mol, ...).
