[gmx-users] Re: Simulation problem with extended membrane system!

[liu xin]

Thanks Chris, I really appreciate your help!
I've got my extended membrane system regarding your note, and now I'm
testing it with my GPCR. I am still not very familiar with the script, I
think it will take some time to learn.

Thanks again!
