One third possibility is to carry out the analysis using GROMACS itself (and a
separate Poisson-Boltzmann program if GROMACS doesn't have one, such as UHBD,
Delphi, MEAD)
The mm_pbsa script in Amber is helpful in "automating" the process of
collecting snapshots and doing statistics, but there is nothing it does
that cannot also be done by hand (which is how such calculations were
originally carried out). In this way, everything uses the same (GROMACS)
force field.
This is just a thought; the other options you suggested also have pros and
cons.
....good luck...dac
