Oh that worked great! I had heard tell of the "chamber" command in parmed
but could not find it in the documentation (bc I only have the Amber14
release manual duh).
Semi-related follow-up: If I want to compare energies between NAMD and
AMBER, do I need any special flags in mdin? Is 1-4 scaling automagically
switched to CHARMM values?
