[gmx-users] Gromos54a8

[rajat desikan]

Hi Justin,
Thanks for the comments.

Since the script was written in 2009, I don't want to use it until I verify
that the formats are unchanged.

"The same would apply here - if you want to validate between the two
software packages, carry out equivalent calculations in both programs."

I didn't realize this. I do not have access to gromos software. I was
thinking of reproducing the results in the 54A8 paper using gromacs. But
this seems to be a critical step!

Anyone in the user forum with access to gromos and interested in porting
54A8 to gromacs??
