Hi Luis,

I do not know another way around then writing a small C code for yourself
that does the job you want (number the water residues and atoms up to the
limit you want to).
About reading the restrt file into leap, I think that there was a similar
question a while ago and the answer was that you can only read it back if
you transform it into a pdb file. However, if you do not want to go
through the trouble of generating a pdb file back from the amber output
files (top and crd) you can try to use VMD and load the .crd file with it.
Alternatively you may want to try to use babel to transform amber files
into pdb files or SIMULAID (http://fulcrum.physbio.edu/~mezei/simulaid
-software free to download for academic use). I did not try Babel myself
on this but I've tried Simulaid and it's a nice software that works well
and has lots of useful features.

Hope this helps,
Ioana
