Hi Justin,

Thanks for the advice. It was the problem with the .xtc file I was using it
worked when I used the .trr file I think something went wrong while
downloading the files from our computer cluster.

One more qustion I have. My molecule looks broken at several places. I know
that it is just an artefact and not that its actually broken. But is there
a way to make then look whole. I tried the option whole with -pbc but
couldn't figure out what it actually did.

Thanks

Rohit
