The logfile printed out by g_cluster gives clusters of structures based on their 
RMSD, with the constituent members printed out next to the cluster number.  The 
cluster members are shown in terms of the timeframe corresponding to the frame.

You can then extract any frames you wish using trjconv -dump.
