[gmx-users] output logfile

[Sanku M]

Hi,
 It might be a very minor issue but I find in versions of gromacs 4.5.4, the output log file ( in verbose mode) writes the progress of the simulation in a single line ( unlike in previous gromacs 4.0.7 version) where it used to write the progress in a new lines. As a result, in gromacs4.5.4, opening a logfile or issuing unix 'tail' command to see last few lines becomes a bit time-consuming as the progress is written in a single line.

An example is shown below for gromacs 4.5.4:
  ^Mstep 2100, will finish Sat Dec  3 19:55:12 2011vol 0.79  imb F  0% ^Mstep 2200, will finish Sat Dec  3 19:54:59 2011vol 0.80  imb F  1% ^Mstep 2300, will finish Sat Dec  3 19:54:49 2011vol 0.79  imb F  1% ^Mstep 2400, will finish Sat Dec  3 19:54:40 2011vol 0.80  imb F  0% ^Mstep 2500, will finish Sat Dec  3 19:54:31 2011vol 0.80  imb F  1% ^Mstep 2600, will finish Sat Dec  3 19:54:22 2011vol 0.80  imb F  1% ^Mstep 2700, will finish Sat Dec  3

I wonder whether there is an fix for this minor issue. 

Thanks
Sanku
