- The "LIG" residue only appears in the pdb version of the file.  I tried to 
use editconf on the .mol type of file to change into .gro file but it gave an 
error so I thought editconf only changes pdb files into .gro ones. This raises 
a question: What other types of files does  editconf change into .gro? Anyways, 
this is a part of the .mol file produced by Marvin Sketch:
