[gmx-users] funny zero-step mdrun results in 4.0.3

Hi,

It is slightly more subtle.
The spacing of the decimals points is correct,
but the last digit of x and y ends up in y and z.

Hi,

I just had a look at the gro files you mailed.
They have one space too little between the x and y columns and
the y and z columns. Or stricktly speaking according to the format,
the space between the x and y decimal point does not match the
space between the y and z decimal point.

I will add a check for this.
