Dear Sergey,
I was only trying to do an Hbond analysis with ptraj but it seems that
ptraj doesn't really do what I would like it to do. So, I decided to do
the analysis with CARNAL and more recently (as of today actually) with
VMD. So, I didn't yet analyze ptraj outputs from Hbond analysis ...
Although I might have a guess of what these parameters mean, I would
rather let somebody else with more experience answer you.
