Hello everyone,

I would like to calculate distance between two atoms from an MD run. For example, how do I probe changes in distance between CD atom of Pro23 and OE1 atom of Glu75 as a function of simulation time.

From the manual, I understand that one should use the command g_dist that includes the index.ndx file. My questions are:

(1) How do I create an index.ndx file for the the above-mentioned pair of atoms?

Use make_ndx. Type 'help' at the prompt for examples. For indices with just one atom each this is not strictly necessary; you can create the necessary groups with a text editor.

(2) What is the exact format of g_dist that should be applied on the command line?


Please read g_dist -h.
