Hi Giacomo and others,

The CVS version of the user's guide containing colvars was more informative.
Based on it, this is how the *component par*t of my colvars config file
looks like, for a single dihedral component:

        dihedral {
                myatoms {
                        group1 { 1 }
                        group2 { 2 }
                        group3 { 3 }
                        group4 { 4 }
                        atomsFile component.pdb
                        atomsCol O
                        atomsColValue 4.00
                        psfSegID TRAN
                }
        }

However, I am getting this error message at runtime:

colvars: Initializing a new collective variable.
colvars: # name = omgprm
colvars: Initializing a new "dihedral" component.
colvars: # componentCoeff = 1 [default]
colvars: # componentExp = 1 [default]
colvars: # oneSiteSystemForce = off [default]
colvars: Error: definition for atom group "group1" not found.

Can I please get some help and some pointers with this?

Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Neela
