Hi Francesco!

So I must define in the current topology the disres bettwen two S atoms (
in the below example 1 and 10 ) to apply hormonic restains

[ distance_restraints ]
; ai aj type index type’ low up1 up2 fac
  1 10  1    0     1    0.18 0.20 0.22 1.0

to restrain this atoms within 0.2 nm. Does it correct ? Or should I
use some other disres for such task ?

James
