Stephane, As an exercise, try running pdb2gmx without redirection of the output... Try to understand the programs and the options before trying to script things (including redirecting input/output).

(my computer is a dual ahtlon 3800+, not that slow ...). As i understand, tt should merge the chain A and chain B into one chain (i may be wrong), so the molecule file in the top should contain only: Protein 1 Not: Protein_A 1 Protein_B 1 In the end i get: pdb2gmx1.log 1HPV_posre_B.itp 1HPV_posre_A.itp 1HPV_gro.top 1HPV_gro.pdb 1HPV_gro_B.itp 1HPV_gro_A.itp Using gromacs 3.3.1. (attached the input pdb file for comparison). This is not *very* important, but since the merge option is here, i was trying to understand what is wrong. I've some specific questions on related topics, etc, i presume it would be better on bugzilla?
