[Hector Mrz-Seara Monne]

Thank you David for your help, I'm quite new in gromacs and many things 
still lack on
my knowledge. Well I'm trying to reduce all the constants forces in the 
*.itp file of my monomer.
By the way, the only constants that worry you where those of the 
improper dihedral or also of the proper once
with the asterisk. And why PRODRG  duplicate the colums of definitions

(c0    c1 m)  (c0   c1 m)

, this is normal(this confuses me since the beginning)?

Thanks.

I've been looking for the configuration of my fonts and everything seems 
to be allright. I'm using the netscape mail. I don't know
what is hapenning but I'll try to fix this problem in the near future
