[gmx-users] tabulated potentials and pairs

[Berk Hess]

Hi,

The scaling in Gromacs is performed on the prefactor 1/(4 pi eps0 eps),
so you do not need to do this in the tables.

BTW you do not need to copy the table, you can also soft-link it,
or give the same file name for both table options.

Berk.
