[gmx-users] Align a vector with an axis of the box

[Mark Abraham]

Hi,

I can't comment on the appropriateness of your protocol, but to implement
it, take your solute and use editconf to rotate it so your intended vector
so it aligns with an appropriate axis, and put e.g. a suitable rectilinear
box on that before filling it with solvent.
