[gmx-users] demux.pl input file

Dear Justin,

Thank you for your answer,

So from the REMD simulation we get different output files:
- .trr : trajectory file
- .edr : energy file
- .cpt: checkpoint used in case of crash
- .log

I am not use to perform REMD with gromacs so I am not sure which files do I
need to concatenated to obtain my xvg trajectory. I assume is .trr because
it is the trajectory file, but because it is a binary file I am not sure.

If I well understand you I don't need to use demux.pl to extract for
example angle of my simulation at a certain temperature but using
replica_temp.xvg file from the demux.pl file to evaluate if the lowest
temperature go through all temperature space is incorrect ??  Should I
create my own script with the *_0.log file to follow the temperature
trajectory through temperature space?

Thank you very much,

Nawel
