Dear Zu Thur,

I had the same problem some time ago with ptraj from AMBER8, I told Tom
Cheatham about it but he is busy enough so I guess he forgot, such as
that the ptraj of AMBER9 has the same problem (at least I was told by
somebody else because I didnt manage to test it myself yet). It is a
strange problem that I couldnt figure out yet ... If I use different
masks everything seems fine (just .~H* has created problems for me so far)

Somebody wrote to me sometime ago (that's how I know that ptraj from
Amber9 has the same problem) and told me that he fixed it by changing
the format of the eigenvectors file (at beginning of line 2 adding or
deleting one space). I didnt try it myself yet but it looks like it
worked for the guy who tested it .... Maybe he will join the list with
an answer for the whole list .....

Maybe one should take a look at the formatting read by the projection
command in the ptraj source code .
