Angle reports the bond angle for three specified atoms or the dihedral angle for four specified atoms. The angle value in degrees is reported in the Reply Log. The atoms need not be connected. The order of specification in the command line is used for the measurement; if the atoms are specified collectively as a selection, however, some attempt is made to use them in a reasonable order for angle measurement.
There are no automatic updates if the angle changes. A new command must be issued to measure the changed angle.
