Thought it might be worth pointing out that PROCHECK_NMR doesn't itself do
any "optimal" superposition of structures, but if the structures in this
"multiple model" file are superimposed in the way that you want them to be,
then PROCHECK_NMR is fine to use. If the file is out of the PDB, they _should_
be superimposed in some way or another of course.
