[gmx-users] Running Grompp in reverse and backing up MD data

[Mark Abraham]

Hi,

Unfortunately there is no way to generate matching inputs to grompp from a
.tpr file. In the longer term, we want that to be possible, but it will
require a total rework of how users specify inputs, and that's a large
effort!
