DELETE ATOMS

This feature is used to eliminate unwanted atoms from a '.res' file and is used to prune '.res' files containing raw peak lists generated by structure determination packages (e.g. DIRDIF & SHELXS).

DEL only works in the true PLUTON mode (i.e. not via PLUTONauto because the '.res' data structure is replaced by a '.spf' structure) as intended. In all other cases it is redefined into the non-destructive EXCLUDE instruction.

The pruned data are written to a file with the extension '.new'
