Well, the exact command line was : g_bundle -f md.xtc -s md.tpr -z -n
bundle.ndx
As for analyzing one axis, yes, that is true, I am only interested in
analysing my helix principal axis.
I have tried using different group sizes for the index group. I have tried
using only carbon alpha for the first half and then for the second half
(each had 15 alpha carbons), then I tried with all sorts of different
groups, first five residues and last five residues, first fifteen residues
and so on.
All analysis came up with the same error.
