Hi david,
             thanx for your reply.. *I would like to know what suite of
programs sander uses to run MD. That would include programs for energy
calculations and trajectory calculations*. Isn't thr any manual which would
give an outline of what each program in the src code does, something like a
programmer's manual. That would be really helpful.
thanx a lot
with regards
gobind
