[gmx-users] trjconv problem

[Sanku M]

Hi Justin,
  In many of the frames, if I use -b and -e to be same , it works
For example, I found if I use -b 16 -e 16, it gives me the the snapshot at 16ps. 
 But, in many cases like 14ps, it is not working. Also, I tried -b 13 -e 14 
-dump 14  . It does not work saying 'WARNING no output, trajectory ended at 14'
Any help will be appreciated.
Sanku

If I recall, -b and -e cannot be the same.  This is the reason for -dump.  It 
might be worth a try to see if trjconv -b 13 -e 14 -dump 14 speeds things up 
any.
