[gmx-users] Reading XTC files from fortran90

Hi Bert.

Thanks a lot for the help. I've found the mistakes, one programming minor
issue and a compiler configuration a bit of "hidden" in the config files.
Old time mistakes just choose to arise at its worst moments. :)

At the moment, I already can read the coordinates, number of atoms, box
coordinates, step number, simulation time and precision. I guess this is all
what is stored in the .xtc files themselves, am I right?

I have so one extra question: I guess that extra information as atom names,
number of molecules of type X, number of molecular types, box and pbc
"shape" and atomic charges and masses are *not* stored in the .xtc files, am
I right? Ok, the "integer" stuff (number of molecules of type X, number of
molecular types, box and pbc) could be written in a special .ndx file, but
that would, by all means, looks at least "diselegant".

If so, the only two possible ways of getting them is reading or the .top and
.itp files correctly, or to read the .tpr file, correct? Now, is there any
guideline available on how to deal with those files?

Thanks a lot everybody for all the help.

Sincerally yours,

Jones
