[gmx-users] TPIC and GMX_TPI_DUMP

I am centering the insertion on the prosthetic group, which I put as 0 0 0.
I have a 222 amino acid protein, in maybe .2 M NaCl, I parametrized flavin
mononucleotide, which sits inside the protein.

I got the .pdb files written, I was setting the GMX_TPI_DUMP in a different
terminal window. Dumb mistake.

Here is the first 100 lines from the xvg. The lines go on for a LONG way
