Hi Tsjerk.

Thanks for the prompt answer.

Good idea, I can take the atom names from a .gro file, nad, probably some strange algorithm can also get the number of atoms per molecule and number of molecules from there, am I right? That would help a lot.

Simplest is to write a parser for a gmxdump of a .tpr file. This is what Perl was made for. If you're constrained to use Fortran for your analysis program, then developing an intermediate file format for it to parse might be worthwhile.

But: I'll still be unable to get atomic masses and point charges. No to mention the box shape. :( And I'll need a way to read these parameters too, unless I begin to write all them in a really awfull and strange index file.

From what I can understand on the "file logistics" of gromacs, these information are only stored in the whole ".top .itp .atp .rtp structure of files" or, in a condensed form, in the ".tpr" file. Is that right?

Yeah. Writing something to do the lookups in the .*tp files which grompp does to form the .tpr is asking for trouble. Do the lookup in the .tpr file. The .edr file has box dimensions, of course.

All this makes it sound like you should be dropping Fortran and writing in C or Perl!
