Re: [AMBER] hbond analysis with CPPTRAJ

Hi,

Can you send me off-list your PDB flie? It appears to be improperly
formatted. There appears to be an extra column of numbers before the
residue name. Also, nothing after the atom name is in the correct
column, but I'm not sure if that's a copy/paste artifact or not.
