Francesco,
At any event, one should be aware (if I understand
correctly) that to convert from Amber to Gromacs with
the alchemistry script below, one should have also the
Amber code installed. Should it work at all with Amber
9, instead of the Amber 7 suggested.
Yes, this works with AMBER 7, 8, and 9 as far as I know (haven't used
with AMBER 7 myself, but have with 8 and 9). And yes, it does require
an AMBER installation. Someone is free to generalize it to not depend
on AMBER...
David
In conclusion (if I understand) there might be a
reason for such conversions if Gromacs code provides
serious advantages (parallelization? I see a lot of
warnings about this aspect, which with QM codes
belongs to the far past) over Amber code.
This is not endorsing any choice. I am still at the
window (without "s").
Cheers
