Hi,
I thought people here on the list might be interested in some recent
improvements in Chimera's MD capabilities. The most recent release
offers a simplified interface for recording trajectory movies, the
ability to compute and display the occupancy of certain atoms
relative to others (e.g. solvent in a binding site), and much faster
computation of the all-by-all RMSD map than in previous releases.
Also, some people may not be aware of the previously-available "hold
steady" feature wherein any part of a structure can be held as steady
as possible as a trajectory is played -- which can be particularly
useful when viewing a replica-exchange trajectory.
You can find full documentation for the MD features here: http://

There is a tutorial here: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/
