I checked back and the 1992 format decscription did not use
columns 77 - 80 for ATOM/HETATM records. But the 1996 document
did use them. I then checked the old Newsletters and the proposed
use of columns 77 - 80 was discussed in April 1995.

OK
So the ATOM TYPE has ZN O C S etc in column 77/78 and the +2 etc in
79/80
Is there any documentation for this?

Yes, see: ftp://ftp.wwpdb.org/pub/pdb/doc/format_descriptions/Format_v33_A4.pdf
Though this has been the format for ATOM/HETATM records ever since I can
remember.
