[gmx-users] g_cluster analysis for structure refirement

[Tsjerk Wassenaar]

Hi James,

The first part is just conformational clustering, for which you can use
g_cluster. The easiest is then to collect the structures belonging to the
different clusters in different files (which g_cluster can do), which you
process separately to extract those properties you're interested in. Then
you can easily plot the selected properties per cluster.

Hope it helps,

Tsjerk
