RE: [AMBER] Unable to correctly identify element when running QM/MM in amber10

Hi Jifeng,

You are correct. I must have forgotten Zinc when I made the bugfix. What you
added should work fine, if you use a Hamiltonian which does not have
parameters for zinc the code will quit elsewhere so you do not need to
worry. I will make an additional bugfix to add support for Zinc.

All the best
Ross
