To do this you'll want to calculate all principal components (i.e.
eigenvectors) from your covariance matrix, so 3 * the number of
selected atoms. Then you run the 'modes' analysis command with the
'eigenval' keyword on the resulting modes data, e.g.
runanalysis diagmatrix myCovar out evececs 246 name myEvecs :1-4&!.H=
runanalysis modes eigenval name myEvecs out evalfrac.dat

For these, just give desired the principal component projection data
set names to the 'hist' command, e.g. for the projection of PC 1 vs 2:
hist Ndom:1 Ndom:2 bins 100 out Ndom_hist.gnu norm name Ndom_1_2

This is a lot trickier. As you probably know principal components
represent axes that in this case describe variance in the selected
atoms in your system. So PCs can tell you about what the dominant
modes of motion in your system look like, but generally may not tell
you how your system actually moves. Personally I like to visualize the
modes of motion with the 'trajout' keyword of 'modes' (which it
appears you are doing). It can also help to look at the so-called
'porcupine plots' - I use the nmwiz plugin for VMD (it appears you are
doing that as well).
Hope this helps,
