[gmx-users] editing .rtp files

Thanks for your help Justin. Looks like I am still having issues though. Now
I get the error:

"Fatal error:
Residue 'IMD' not found in residue topology database"

I am trying to create a topolgy file using pdb2gmx with the OPLS-AA force
field and I have added the following entry to the ffoplsaa.rtp file. Also I
have added IMD to aminoacid.dat but I dont think that is necessary for
running pdb2gmx. Any ideas where I'm going wrong?
