Dear all,

I've done some REMD simulations using a quite high exchange attempt frequency (10 attempts per ps) as proposed by Sindhikara et al. ("Exchange Often and Properly in Replica Exchange Molecular Dynamics",J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2010, 6, 2804–2808 ). Unfortunately, I have now recognized that the demux perl script cannot account for an EAF which is higher than the saving frequency in the trajectory.

Comments from demux.pl:
# If your exchange was every N ps and you saved every M ps you can make for
# the missing frames by setting extra to (N/M - 1). If N/M is not integer,
# you're out of luck and you will not be able to demux your trajectories at all.

In my case exchanges every 0.1 ps and saved every 5 ps

Changing the demux.pl script, so that it writes the "replica_index.xvg" with a higher precision (time in ps) should be no problem. However, my question is: will this work together with trjcat? Does trjcat search for the timeframe given in the first column of "replica_index.xvg", or does it links each line to one saved timeframe? If so, could I just delete the additional lines in "replica_index.xvg"?

I would be really happy if someone could help me with this!
Thanks!

Andi
