Re: [AMBER] recovering amber binaries

Sorry I think I need to rephrase my question:

I am trying to recover netcdf trajectory files that are in a binary
format as far as I know. So my question is if there's any clever way to
identify a binary file as Amber Trajectory.

Sorry for the confusion.


Kind regards,

Andreas

Once located you can execute these binaries in a temporary folder -- the header/output/error will give you some more information. But if your libraries were also moved you will have additional issues while trying to execute these binary files.
