msms_surface [ selection [, state [, density [, name
    [, atomcolors [, exe [, preserve ]]]]]]]

Arguments

• selection = str: atom selection {default: polymer}
• state = int: object state {default: 1}
• density = float: MSMS surface point density {default: 3}
• name = str: name of CGO object to create
• atomcolors = 0/1: color surface by atom colors {default: 0}
