	<P><B>Description:</B>
	</P>
	<P>Define a computation that computes the per-atom bond energy for each
	atom in a group.
	</P>
	<P>The bond energy for each atom is computed by looping over the atoms it
	is bonded to and computing the bond energy associated with the defined
	<A HREF = "bond_style.html">bond_style</A> command for each I-J bond (divided by 2).
	Thus the sum of per-atom bond energy for all atoms should give the
	total bond energy of the system.
	</P>
	<P>If two atoms are bonded and only one of them is in the compute group,
	the energy of the bond is included in the per-atom energy of the atom
	in the group.
	</P>
	<P>Computation of per-atom bond energy requires a loop thru the bond list
	and inter-processor communication, so it can be inefficient to
	compute/dump this quantity too frequently or to have multiple
	compute/dump commands, each of a <I>ebond/atom</I> style.
