[gmx-users] gromacs 5.0 tools: gmx distance and gmx mindist time series

1. How can I get rid of the inconsistency? Did I use the wrong options 
for gmx_trjcat?

2. About the distances - for gromacs 4.6.7 I used:
printf "A\nB\n" | g_dist -s md_2.tpr -f md.xtc -n sys.ndx -o dist.xvg 
-dt 100

for gromacs 5.0 I used:
printf "A\nB\n" | gmx distance -s md_2.tpr -f md.xtc -n sys.ndx -oall 
dist_all.xvg -oav dist_av.xvg -oh dist_h.xvg -dt 100 -tu ns

Doees that indicate anything?

Cheers,
oliwia
