[gmx-users] g_vanhove output

Hi,

You can look at the code yourself :)

I coded this and -or (which I assume you are talking about)
is G with 1/nm as a unit.
It gives the probability that a particle has moved a distance r.
The 1/nm is the normalization to make the values bin-size independent.

Might it be that the difference in interpretation comes from if you consider
normalization of the volume of sphere-shells or not?
