[gmx-users] local pressure

[XAvier Periole]

The use of the original code is quite straightforward, the post processing is a bit more confusing but quite accessible. 

We have been using this code (the one available on the site) and related version in the lab and we definitely would find it very sad to not keep this feature available in GROMACS.

All of those factors make it unlikely to ever incorporate into an actual release.  Given that the development process has gone on for years in the absence of any real interest in the localpressure branch, it's probably more trouble than it's worth to get it up and running effectively.
