Re: [AMBER] calculating headgroup ion-ion and ion-dipole contacts for lipid bilayers

Hi,

The 'nativecontacts' command may help. It doesn't take things like
charge into account (this is a potentially interesting future
functionality upgrade), it just uses simple distance cutoffs, but it
could be a good first pass. You may also be able to adapt the 'hbond'
command but without knowing the specifics of the system I can't
provide specific details.

Hope this helps,

-Dan
