Great, thanks!

Hi Yasser,
You can change the vertices and edges in the icosahedron surface into a "molecule" (dummy atoms and bonds) with the "meshmol" command, and then save the resulting coordinates as a PDB file.

For example, if your icosahedron surface is #0, command:

meshmol #0 0.25

...for bond stick-display radius 0.25; you could use some other number, doesn't really matter if the purpose is to save coordinates. That will create a new molecule model with name "Mesh Icosahedron."

...and then use command "write" or menu: File... Save PDB to save that molecule model.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
