Oh well, back to the drawing board (from GlobalMasterIMD.C):
// Assume for now that the only thing we get from VMD is a set of forces.
// Later we'll want to look for and implement more sophisticated control
// parameters. ie have a specified protocol
// Check/get new forces from VMD
get_vmd_forces();
// Right now I don't check to see if any new forces were obtained.
// An optimization would be cache the results message. However, there
// would still be copying since it looks like the messages get deleted
// by the receiver.
