Hi Thomas,

You can build a box by specifying vector lengths and angles: gmx editconf
-box ... -angles ... . Mind that you don't have full freedom like that, as
the box matrix will be upper triangular and reduced (the projection of a
later vector on a previous may not be larger than half that vector). But
any lattice/box can be rotated and deskewed to meet these criteria.

Hope it helps,

Tsjerk
