Hi,

 not so far. I am thinking about the best way to sample the box
uniformly without meeting the PME grid nodes. My current thoughts are to
sample the box in (k+1)(k-1) points in every dimension, where k is the
number of grid points in the respective direction. However I have to
test if this is enough or too much.

I put the current code in gromacs to make it easier to Carsten to access
it and adapt g_tune_pme if desired. At the beginning we wanted to
incorporate the tool into g_tune_pme, but as g_pme_error is MPI enabled
problems arise, when an MPI program starts a further MPI program.

As soon as possible I will implement this and contact Carsten to discuss
how and if g_pme_error will be incorporated into g_tune_pme.
