Hi,

we have an open bugzilla http://bugzilla.gromacs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219 
about renaming all gromacs programs to something that does not conflict 
with other packages, that is descriptive and that is unique.

Two possibilities are more obvious than others:
1. g_XXX
2. gmx_XXX

In favor of 1 points that people have tons of scripts using the analysis 
tools and that we already have many such programs.

In favor of 2 points that it is more descriptive.

Suggestions?
Opinions?
