Re: [AMBER] converting prmtop to psf with improper and cross-term info stripped off

Hi,

As stated in the manual (the table in 32.9 that lists supported
topology formats) there is only limited support for PSF writes; the
only fully-supported topology for writes is Amber topology files. More
recent versions of cpptraj (to be safe use the github version, but the
AmberTools 20 version does it as well I think) will write some
additional PSF terms (angles, dihedrals, impropers); however, things
like CMAP terms are definitely not yet supported. Cpptraj was never
intended to be used as a parameter/topology conversion tool (even
though some of that has crept in over the years). Parmed might have
better support for something like this.
