The way WHOLEMOLECULES modifies each of the listed entities is this:
- First atom of the list is left in place
- Each atom of the list is shifted by a lattice vectors so that it becomes as close as possible
to the previous one, iteratively.
In this way, if an entity consists of a list of atoms such that consecutive atoms in the
list are always closer than half a box side the entity will become whole.
This can be usually achieved selecting consecute atoms (1-100), but it is also possible
to skip some atoms, provided consecute chosen atoms are close enough.
