 bounadry conditions when calculating a particular colvar) or they can be words followed by an equals sign and a comma separated 
 list _with no spaces_ of numbers or characters (so for example ATOMS=1,2,3,4 tells PLUMED to use atom numbers 1,2,3 and 4 in

+The reason why spaces are not admitted is that PLUMED should be able to understand when the list of atoms
+ended and a new keyword should be expected. 
+Space separated lists can be used instead of commma separated list if the entire list
 is enclosed in curly braces (e.g. ATOMS={1 2 3 4}).  Please note that you can split commands over multiple lines by using
 \ref ContinuationLines.
