Hi,

As stated in the description of the 'hbond' command in the AT13 manual
(Chapter 8.10.18):

'...as well as the residue # of the bridging solvent and the solute
residues being bridged with format ’<solvent resnum>(<solute
res1>+<solute res2>+...+),...’'

So in your case:

> 97(12+31+),639(16+27+),1933(4+39+),5244(20+23+),7381(10+33+),10415(9+34+),10964(6+37+),

means solvent residue 97 is bridging solute residues 12 and 31 (i.e.
in that coordinate frame solvent is h-bonding to both solute residues
at the same time), solvent residue 639 is bridging solute residues 16
and 27, etc. Hope this helps clarify things.

-Dan
