Description
"""""""""""
.. versionadded:: 15Sep2022
Define alphanumeric type labels to associate with one or more numeric
atom, bond, angle, dihedral or improper types. A collection of type
labels for all atom types, bond types, etc. is stored as a label map.
The label map can also be defined by the :doc:`read_data <read_data>`
command when it reads these sections in a data file: Atom Type Labels,
Bond Type Labels, etc. See the :doc:`Howto type labels
<Howto_type_labels>` doc page for a general discussion of how type
labels can be used. See :ref:`(Gissinger) <Typelabel1>` for a
discussion of the type label implementation in LAMMPS and its uses.
Valid type labels can contain any alphanumeric character, but must not
start with a number, a '#', or a '*' character. They can contain other
standard ASCII characters such as angular or square brackets '<' and '>'
or '[' and ']', parenthesis '(' and ')', dash '-', underscore '_', plus
'+' and equals '=' signs and more. They must not contain blanks or any
other whitespace. Note that type labels must be put in single or double
quotation marks if they contain the '#' character or if they contain a
double (") or single quotation mark ('). If the label contains both
a single and a double quotation mark, then triple quotation (""") must
be used. When enclosing a type label with quotation marks, the
LAMMPS input parser may require adding leading or trailing blanks
around the type label so it can identify the enclosing quotation
marks. Those blanks will be removed when defining the label.
A *labelmap* command can only modify the label map for one type-kind
(atom types, bond types, etc). Any number of numeric-type/type-label
pairs may follow. If a type label already exists for the same numeric
type, it will be overwritten. Type labels must be unique; assigning the
same type label to multiple numeric types within the same type-kind is
not allowed. When reading and writing data files, it is required that
there is a label defined for *every* numeric type within a given
type-kind in order to write out the type label section for that
type-kind.
The *clear* option resets the label map and thus discards all previous
settings.
The *write* option takes a filename as argument and writes the current
label mappings to a file as a sequence of *labelmap* commands, so the
file can be copied into a new LAMMPS input file or read in using the
:doc:`include <include>` command.

Restrictions
""""""""""""
This command must come after the simulation box is defined by a
:doc:`read_data <read_data>`, :doc:`read_restart <read_restart>`, or
:doc:`create_box <create_box>` command.
Label maps are currently not supported when using the KOKKOS package.
