[gmx-users] Check point file

[Dallas Warren]

Check point files are generated as the simulation runs, and it keeps
the last and 2nd last one generated. They are used to continue a
simulation if the system crashes, or even extend an existing system.
You won't have a copy of the check point file from 80ns. The best you
can do is supply the coordinate file (.gro), trajectory file (.trr),
and energy file (.edr) from the 80ns time, and extend the simulation
time from those files. Whether that is suitable for your purposes,
i.e. accurate enough etc, that is for you to decided.
