[gmx-users] Merging two topology files

[Yang Ye]

It will be not good in doing this. I am giving out opinion here here 
only for the concern of syntax correctness (Chap. 5 of manual).
:
Questions to ask:
1. are two FF have the same [defaults] section? If no, stop from here.
[ defaults ]
; nbfunc        comb-rule       gen-pairs       fudgeLJ fudgeQQ
  1             1               no              1.0     1.0
2. Prepare the topologies for two molecules independently.
3. Pick up everything you need for "ff1nb.itp", "ff1bon.itp", 
"ff2nb.itp", "ff2bon.itp" for the definition of your molecule. From atom 
type (.atp), bond, pair, dihedral, and improper (every section in 
topologies). This is going to be time consuming.
