The optional keywords can be used to create a system that allows for
bond (angle, dihedral, improper) interactions to be added later,
similar to the way they would be specified in a data file. Note that
if these keywords are not used, then the create_box command creates an
atomic (non-molecular) simulation that does not allow bonds between
pairs of atoms to be defined or a "bond potential"_bond_style.html to
be specified.
As an example, see the examples/deposit/in.deposit.mol script, which
deposits molecules onto a substrate. Initially there are no molecules
in the system, but they are added later by the "fix
deposit"_fix_deposit.html command. The create_box command is used in
the script with the "bond types" and "extra bond per atom" keywords to
allow molecules with bonds to be later added to the system.
The keywords that can be specified are listed above. Note that each
is a multi-word keyword which must be specified as a single argument.
This means the keyword must be enclosed in quotes, as in the example
above.
