Thanks Dan,

I think multhist has not been included yet to the amber-12 which I'm using

...
INPUT: Reading Input from file water.in
  [parm ./top_all/7D4-androsta.top]
  [trajin ./tr_all/7D4-androsta.mdcrd]
    [7D4-androsta.mdcrd] contains 5191 frames.
  [watershell :104 W1_apo_DRY.dat :WAT.O* lower 3 upper 5]
  [multihist W1[*] out W1.hist.agr bins 50]
Warning: Unknown Command multihist.
