[gmx-users] selecting atoms in index file

[Hermann, Johannes]

Dear Golnaz,

do you know the number (index) of the respective atoms? E.g. open the 
.gro file in vmd and look for the atoms?

If there are not too many atoms, you can manually edit your index file. 
E.g. create a default index file (gmx make_ndx) and add the subset of 
indexes with a new selection definition:

---

[ MySelection]

23 57 75

All the best

Johannes
