Re: [AMBER] Howto cpptraj - multiple trajin-commands in one line

May I suggest another way of doing it:
cpptraj can take a file as input using the following command :
cpptraj -i INPUTFILE
Then one way of doing it would be to create a bash script that produces the required INPUTFILE which should contain the following informations:
“parm TOPOLOGY (e.g. .prmtop file)
trajin xxx_1.mdcrd
trajin xxx_2.mdcrd
trajin xxx_3.mdcrd
...
 ##analysis commands##”

For instance:
echo “parm FILE.prmtop > trajin.in
ls -tr *.mdcrd | awk '{print "trajin "$0" 1 1 1"}' >> trajin.in // if you want to list all the .mdcrd file in the current working directory for example.
...
then cpptraj -i trajin.in

Hope it can be of any help.
Jean-Marc

Filenames are not a problem, but the number of mdcrd files I would like to determine via checking if a filename-variable is setted. In this case I attach the trajin command for that file to an array.
