[gmx-users] after extending simulation

[Andrea Spinelli]

So, I’m ok! 
I can read the only one .gro file created at the first simulation as the final .gro file after all extensions. That’s right?

Whatever that file is called depends on the first run (md_0_1), because the file names are stored in the .cpt file; they will be appended to by default.  The final .gro file has an appended name rather than being overwritten, IIRC.
