Dear Justin
You are right,But I searched in tools and I found g_sham
It is very useful tool for estimating Gibbs free energy,Enthalepy ,
emtropy and ...
I think I can use from that for my calculation of binding free energy(In the
other words,del G free energy of system )
how do you think about g_sham?
