Sorry,

I forgot to mention,.. this script is only for pdb files and let me clean
it up a bit to get..

NOw, just put the value of z in for "a certain value" and call it like

awk -f file_w_the_above_script_in_it < in.pdb > out.ndx

then edit the out.ndx file by putting a tag at the top of the file to make
it a proper index file.. i.e. something like..

[ MY_ATOMS ]
