Hi,
If I remember correctly, the 2 output files for the ptraj secstruct
command have formats:
<file>
Time Res1 Res2 ... ResN
Where each "ResX" column has a letter corresponding to a secondary
structure type (H for helix, B for anti-parallel beta, etc - see the
ptraj section of the AmberTools manual for the complete list).
<file>.sum has the average secondary structure for each residue.
In order to view <file> in xmgrace you'll probably have to write a
script that will process it. However, the overall SS averages in
<file>.sum file should be easy to view in xmgrace.
As a secondary note, if you use cpptraj you can output the SS averages
directly to xmgrace format, e.g. for the first 10 residues:
secstruct :1-10 out dssp.dat sumout dssp.sum.agr
"dssp.sum.agr" will contain the averages and can be read by xmgrace.
