('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Dear Ross and Dac:

Thanks for the suggestions. I created the min.in file (named as
test1amin.in) from unix, and saved it into the local directory. This
time, there was no message such as 'cannot read &cntr1'. Instead, no
result at all. from the min.out, there is no descrption about my input
..in file. While before, the message showed the input .in file. I don't
know which part is wrong.

Could you please help! Thank you.

The follows are my input and output files:

-----

guanine.9% ls
Run1min.out mdout out.min
built.lib model0.pdb polyAT_vac_init_min.out
help model1-1.inpcrd run1min.in
leap. model1-1.prmtop test1amin.in
leap.log nuc.out test1min.in

guanine.12% less test1amin.in
initial minimization test1a
 &cntr1
   imin=1
   maxcyc=200
   ntpr=5
 /

test1amin.in (END)

guanine.10% setenv AMBERHOME /usr/local/amber7
guanine.11% unlimit

guanine.17% sander -O -i test1amin.in -o test1amin.out -c model1-1.inpcrd
-p model1-1.prmtop -r test1amin.rst

guanine.18% ls
