[gmx-users] The problems of controling one atom through modifygromacs sourse code

[Carsten Kutzner]

Hi Chuan,

you might want to take a look at gmx_ga2la.h. The function
ga2la_home provides the local atom number for a given global
atom number (or returns FALSE if the atom is not found on the local
processor).
