Hello gmx users,

I want to calculate binding energy for a protein-ligand complex. Obviously,
this is the very first time, I'm handling umbrella sampling, so I faced the
following error.

WARNING 2 [file pull.mdp, line 65]:
  Unknown left-hand 'pull_ncoords' in parameter file



WARNING 3 [file pull.mdp, line 65]:
  Unknown left-hand 'pull_group1_name' in parameter file



WARNING 4 [file pull.mdp, line 65]:
  Unknown left-hand 'pull_group2_name' in parameter file



WARNING 5 [file pull.mdp, line 65]:

WARNING 6 [file pull.mdp, line 65]:

WARNING 7 [file pull.mdp, line 65]:

WARNING 8 [file pull.mdp, line 65]:
