2009-02-16 Thread Dallas B. Warren
OK, well I got this wrong. If you want to extend or continue a simulation that has completed, you still have to use tpbconv. It is used to change the number of steps, then you feed that into mdrun with the checkpoint file. The only time you don't need tpbconv now is with a crashed simulation.

When using checkpoint files to continue a run, mdrun overrides the output file names specified by putting ".part" before the file extension. I don't want it to do that, since I have already told it how I want the output files to be named. Is it possible to stop that happening? Catch ya, D
