[gmx-users] Question about generating top file with different angle functions

Hi Aishwary,

Thank you very much for your reply. So I guess the answer to my question is
there's no way to overwrite the angle function type for specific angle
interaction by changing .rtp file or other like ffbond.itp files in force
field. Then I will save my time from investigating how to change .rtp file
or other files in force field folder, and focus on writing a script.

Thanks a lot.

Zhenhai
