[gmx-users] water box size from output files

[Igor Marques]

rabab,

justin mentioned the *gro file saved at the end of the simulation - the last
line contains the box dimensions.

you can extract them with g_energy:
g_energy -f your_edr_file -o your_output_file
and then selecting:
Box-X
Box-Y
Box-Z


good luck,
igor
