[gmx-users] pdb as topology file

[Lishan Yao]

Wait a second, then it should give me 10 times smaller number not 10
times larger.In the covariance matrix analysis, gromacs gives me nm^2 as
the unit. Most of my C-alpha only have motion about 0.5 angstroms. The
biggest number I get from g_covar is about 1.6 nm^2. That is a big
number.
