Dear All,

Now that I have my parm file for my organic molecule (having followed Ross
Walker's tutorial 5 step by step) I still have a couple of questions :)

1) I see that my frcmod is empty. Is that b/c all of the required info are
   in the prmtop file?

2) How can I add polarizability to my molecule?

Thanks a lot!

Raffaella.
