[gmx-users] trjconv error

[Ragothaman Yennamalli]

Hi,
Thanks for the mail. Well, I am using a old version specifically, even though newer versions are available. It is quite confusing since the same file is being able to be read by other tools like gmxcheck. And it is while running by gmxcheck that I get the Magic number error
