Description

              Used for PDB space group:

               Example: 'C 1 2 1'  (instead of C 2)
                        'P 1 2 1'  (instead of P 2)
                        'P 1 21 1' (instead of P 21) 
                        'P 1 1 21' (instead of P 21 -unique C axis)
                        'H 3'      (instead of R 3   -hexagonal)
                        'H 3 2'    (instead of R 3 2 -hexagonal)
