Yes, well, I don't want to invent and validate a whole new forcefield, if
that's what you mean.
I would sooner write a BAR code from scratch than do that.
Do you think the approach above won't work for some reason?
Its unusual maybe to set a constraint to zero bond length in the pull code
(which I think is the only way in GMX to set constraints between atoms in
different molecules).
But other than that, it looks straightforward.
