Oh, my. It may be that the REST in the &wt namelist doesn't mean what you
think it does. These refer to "NMR restraints"
(bonds/angles/torsions/etc.). But you don't appear to have defined any such
restraints.

The "restraint_wt" and "restraintmask" refer to Cartesian restraints that
keep the atoms near to their positions in the reference structure. There is
no way to have restraint_wt depend upon step number.

I can see how easy it would be to confuse two things that have such similar
names. At a minimum, we need to add an explicit warning to the manual.
Changing "restraint_wt" to something like coordinate_restraint_wt" would
help, but would have a big backwards-incompatibility downside. Volunteers
are solicited to pitch in to make this better.
