Chimera Commands Index

Usage:
delete atom-spec

Delete removes the specified atoms and their bonds. The removed items cannot be recovered except by reopening the original input. The behavior is like that of delete in the Atoms/Bonds section of the Actions menu, not the command delete in Midas. (In Midas, delete is used to remove a branch of atoms from the side chain of a residue and rename the residue.)
