MPLA na atomnames

A least-squares mean plane is calculated through the first na of the named atoms, and the equation of the plane and the deviations of all the named atoms from the plane are listed with estimated standard deviations (from the full covariance matrix). The angle to the previous least-squares plane (if any) is also calculated, but some approximations are involved in estimating its esd. na must be at least 3. If na is omitted the plane is fitted to all the atoms specified.
