Hi Tom,

It looks like a path problem to me, but Amber runs OK, so should I have additional lines in my .cshrc so that antechamber finds the parameters it is looking for?

I see you're still using Amber 8. Antechamber has been re-released a number of times since then, now as part of AmberTools, a free download from http://ambermd.org. You may wish to download AmberTools 1.5 (the most recent version) and try its antechamber.
