I did not download anything from GitHub.

Here is the output of ls from bash

jgough.node4:/scratch1/amber14/AmberTools/src/parmed> ls
chemistry compat24.py compat24.pyc Makefile parmed.Doxyfile parmed.py
 ParmedTools setup.sh xparmed.py
jgough.node4:/scratch1/amber14/AmberTools/src/parmed> ls *
compat24.py compat24.pyc Makefile parmed.Doxyfile parmed.py setup.sh
 xparmed.py

chemistry:

I believe that something IS off when the output is parsed by sander. Our
calculations (on the energy) are WAY off. That's how I came across the
errors. The data from one node was correct and the output of the other was
off.
