Re: AMBER: surface area over the trajectory

Hello Carlos,

If coordinates sets are read from trajectory, why are initial
coordinates (with -c option) needed?

Second question:
Should I define that how often ntwx, ntwe, ntwr, ntpr are saved in
input file?
I think that data should be saved for each frame of MD trajectory
automatically.

Third question:
I ran job with the following command but I don't get any output in
*.out file even though ntwx=1, ntwe=1, ntwr=1 and ntpr=1 in input file
to calculate surface area.

sander -O -i surface.in -o surface.out -p topology.top -c initial.crd
-x MDtraj.crd


Thanks
