VMD ignores CONECT records in PDB files and always determines bonds by
distance, so it wouldn't matter for VMD, anyway. I'm not sure if Chimera
or PyMol do the same thing or not.
If you create a prmtop file and use that to generate the topology in VMD,
then the bonds in the prmtop will be respected, so that's an option.
(Should also work for Chimera -- not sure about PyMol.)
