[gmx-users] compound-I/II topology, i.e. porphyrin(Fe=O)

[Arturas]

I see no huge difficulties with charges as they, as you mentioned,
can be calculated with ab initio or semiempyrical methods. 

However, there is b0 and kb konstants in *.rtp file concerning bond
description. How are they optional ?

In general talking abaout topology writing (*.rtp), there is some
missunderstanding. There are fields [bond], [exclusions], [angles],
[dihedrals], [impropers]. Are they all necceassary ?

What are [impropers] needed for ?
[angles] and [dihedrals] have parameters like: th0, cth and phi0, cp,
mult. What are these ? Should I define them too ?
