What Dave said is accurate, but I've thought about this before and there's
a potential solution. If you are familiar with the C programming language,
it is possible to construct a MC program written in the NAB programming
language (which looks very much like C, but has useful pre-defined data
types and routines useful for molecular modeling). NAB should make it much
easier to create your own MC program that does exactly what you want it to
do, as long as it will properly handle the systems the way you want (i.e.,
there is no code for PME in NAB).

HTH,
