Thanks!
However now I jet another error
-bash: export: `/home/cocktail/vitalini/gromacs_special/bin/dssp': not
a valid identifier
even though the path is correct and I have saved the binary file that
I downloaded with the name dssp. Do you kno if after downloading I
have  to do anything with the binary file to make it work? n the dssp
website they don't write anything about it.

What was your exact export command?

Thanks again

Dear all,
In order to get the secondary structure of my pdb file I need to run
the do_dssp program. When I try to run it however I get the following
error

Program do_dssp, VERSION 3.3.1
Source code file: do_dssp.c, line: 448

Fatal error:
DSSP executable (/usr/local/bin/dssp) does not exist (use setenv DSSP)

So I went to the http://swift.cmbi.ru.nl/gv/dssp/DSSP_5.html website
and downloaded the program. when then I try to settle the environment
variable

set an environment variable DSSP pointing to the dssp executable, e.g.:

setenv DSSP /opt/dssp/bin/dssp

then I get the following error message:

-bash: setenv: command not found

You need to use "export" for bash; "setenv" is for csh.

export DSSP=/opt/dssp/bin/dssp
