Dears,
So, I would like to understand what exactly is happening to parameters when
you load from frcmod.ff99SB.

So in tleap, loading leaprc.ff99SB, it will first load parm99.dat and then
frcmod.ff99SB. Taking a set o parameter to illustrate, we have in
parm99.dat, DIHE:

C -N -CT-C 1 0.850 180.000 -2. C -N -CT-C 1 0.800 0.000 1.

Looking at frcmod.ff99SB, we have:

C -N -CT-C 1 0.00 0.0 -4. four amplitudes
and
C -N -CT-C 1 0.42 0.0 -3. phases for phi
C -N -CT-C 1 0.27 0.0 -2.
C -N -CT-C 1 0.00 0.0 1.

So what exactly is happening here? Are those 4 new entries added to the 2
first original or the simply replacing them?

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Alan
