[gmx-users] suggest small revision to genbox

[bharat v. adkar]

genbox works fine for me. i use 3.3.1 version. it works fine with and 
without script.

but i don't understand how will u get rid of backup files in the permanent 
directory from whatever u have mentioned, because gromacs creates the 
output topology in the same location where it reads the input topology 
from. so temperory directory thing will work only if u make an link of top 
file from permanent directory and use this linked version as input, then 
move the new top from temp to permanent directory.
