[gmx-users] pbc doubt

[Adriana Pietropaolo]

Hi all,
I have a doubt with the pbc applied in the MD.
I converted the xtc file in pdb with trjconv.
Checking with rasmol the pdb file, I found that the protein is always not 
broke in fragments and the box is always fix.
Subsequently, I tried to use the option -pbc whole, which breaks the 
protein in more fragments, but the box is always fix, not spanned.
I would like to analyze my gromacs trajectory making some codes written 
from my self, but I have this pbc doubt.
So, how can I remove the pbc from the xtc files? 
I think that for the protein in the xtc file pbc are already removed, 
but for the solvent are not removed.
Let me to ask another question:
Do you think that for the trajectory analysis with my fortran codes
I can use the format g96?
Thanks in advance,
cheers,
Adriana
