    % genice CRN1 -f cage[3-10:json] 

It may not work with a small structure. (In the example above, the unit cell of CS1 is extended to 2x2x2 so as to avoid detecting cell-spanning wierd cages.)

    Cage sizes to be listed, separated by commas and ranged with hyphens. (default is 3 to 8)
    maxring=x  Specify the maximum ring size (default=8).
    json       Output in JSON format.
