Dear Jenk,

VMD can to do that fairly easy with a bit of tcl writing (which should
be very easy if you read a bit the VMD manual). Maybe you want to take a
look at it ...

or in ptraj you could in principle use the negation "~" in the mask and
"strip" everything but your desired residues .... In my understanding,
you dont need any special script to do that ...

Good luck
