[gmx-users] pdb2gmx -merge non interactive

[Wojtyczka, André]

Hmm...

"although it is necessary to run
it through on the command line once to see what the order of arguments
should be"

...exactly is the main problem as I don't know all the time how many chains
are in the files I'm processing.
Pdb2gmx asks for every chain included in your files.

Though I can assume 8 chains in 99% of the files, I wanted to know if there
may be a switch included in pdb2gmx like -ff.

Maybe I prescan my files to get the amount of chains and then pass that
value to my pdb2gmx script.

Anyway, thanks for your answer, I appreciate it!


< What exactly did you try? Something like this?
<
< pdb2gmx -f a.gro << EOF
< 5
< y
< EOF
