Lei, The DeGrado lab developed a tool that would do just what you seek to do and could function as a PyMOL plugin. I played with it a few years ago after I found an interesting cation-pi sandwhich in my structure. I e-mailed then with the author, hoping to link the tool to the entire current PDB inventory, but then had to move on to another project, so am not certain how updated it is now. Have a look at the tool and documentation here: http://degradolab.org/suns/ It is reported in 2014 by Gonzalez et al, here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25079944
