Dear Lemkul

Thank you very much for the recommendation.

I tried each step but separate and you were right I was missing the .gro in
my directory.

Now the script should work. But I am still unsure of how to declare the
location of my file in the environmental variable $FREE_ENERGY and $MDP. Do
you have any suggestions.

The location of my file is /home/Lazaro/tutorial_gromacs

Kindly,

Lazaro
