Hi,
You can use the "within" atom selection keyword to query the
atom ID's of waters within a given distance from a reference selection.
You can then use "same residue as" to select entire waters rather
than individual atoms. So, you selection might be something like:
set sel [atomselect top "same residue as (within 20 of something)"
where something is distance reference point, for example.
