Three possible ways:
(1) closest (or closestwaters) to save waters in active site; note that
numbering will not be maintained so this may only be useful for looking at
the 1 closest water to each residue of interest.
(2) grid density visualized with Chimera or VMD
center :50 mass origin
image origin center familiar
rms first mass :50
grid wat.dat 100 0.5 100 0.5 100 0.5 :WAT.O
(3) hbond command and use of solventdonor/solventacceptor. Search
