Re: AMBER: saveAmberPrep in internal coordinates

If the residue is a small molecule, you could easily convert prepc into
prepi with antechamber (using -j 0 flag if you do not want to change atom
types).
However, if it is an amino acid like residue (not capped), antechamber still
works only if you use '-j 5', you may lose some improper dihedral
information.
