gcq#0: Thanx for Using GROMACS - Have a Nice Day


For our project's workflow we are extending the simulations using
these arguments,
-v -x -c -o -e -cpo next.cpt -cpi md.cpt -deffnm md

but I notice there is much more standard error output than I was
expecting, in addition to a LINCS WARNING. Should I be worried about
that warning?
Is there a way we can turn off these error reports for each timestep?
