Well, not "equal" but it means that the "CHARMM27" files include C22/CMAP for 
proteins.  There is no such thing as a CHARMM27 protein force field.  The C27 
nucleic acid and lipid parameters came out at the same time as the C22/CMAP 
protein force field, and got somewhat unfortunately lumped together in nomenclature.
