[gmx-users] problem with g_rmsf

[Tsjerk Wassenaar]

Hi Adriana,

The option -q is for output and has nothing to do with the rmsf calculation.
In the latter case, I'm not sure what you mean with "the results is
different from zero". You would indeed expect the rmsf to be zero in that
case, except for rounding errors. So, what exactly is different from zero
and by which extent?
