Thank you for your answer. However, when I use g_energy on .edr file it prints the average temperature of the system and not of the group of atoms that I am interested in, which is why I was trying to make g_traj work cos it uses index.ndx file for choosing the segment from your system and calculate the average temperature for that segment. One more thing, g_energy has Pres-XX, XY etc., what are these?

That's more complicated than you need, and will not be accurate over all MD steps. All you need to do is extract the temperatures from the .edr file using g_energy and the average is printed to the screen. This average is correct over all steps, since energy history is stored in the .edr file and is not limited to nst* output. -Justin -- ======================================== Justin A.
