Re: restart problem

Dear Xin Liu,

The *.coor and *.vel files are binary files, therefore you need
to replace "coordinates" by "bincoordinates" and "velocities" by
"binvelocities". You may want to keep "coordinates original-file.pdb".

> I remebered that someone've met this "line too long" error before, inthat case he used the "bincoordinates" option to solve the problem,since I haven't used the "binaryoutput" option, I think this methodcan't help my problem. In my case, I think my .restart.coor file arepdb file, but when I checked my .restart.coor and file, I found it full of symbols, numbers and letters like the error message showed,this is not in the same format of pdb files I saw before, so I doubtif the problem is here? My system is SUSE 9.0 and I used the NAMD 2.5to do the simulation.
