[gmx-users] g_hbond

[fahimeh baftizadeh]

Thanks for the reply.
In fact I had the trajectory with water but then I removed it to have smaller size of files. the point is that It didn't complain or crash when I was using that trajectory, choosing water in the groups selecting. but it didn't also generate any output. that is why I asked that ...

Anyway since I have gro files time to time, I think I will cat all the gro file and use that for analysis of h_bond.

In theory you could get an approximate number from analyzing what polar 
groups are not hydrogen bonded intramolecularly. There is not ready tool 
to do this. The quickest solution is probably to rerun the simulation. 
In most cases human time is more valuable than computer time.
