TO Measure Angle:
This scripted VMD proc should get you started measuring angles and
outputting them to a file.
Usage: put the proc in a file (ie scanAngle.tcl) and load it into vmd through the TKConsole with "source scanAngle.tcl", then use with: "scanAngle $yourAtomSelection yourOutputFileName firstFrameToMeasure lastFrameToMeasure""
proc scanAngle {sel {outputFileName "angleScan.dat"} {startFrame 0}
{lastFrame 0} } {
# Beware, there may be bugs. This proc was quickly written as an
# example.
if { [ llength [$sel get index ]] != 3 } {
puts "Your atomselection must contain 3 particles, no more, no less"
return
}
set fd [open $outputFileName "w"]
set myMolid [ $sel molid ]
if { lastFrame == 0 } {
set lastFrame [ molinfo $myMolid get numframes ]
}
for {set i startFrame} {$i<=$lastFrame} {incr i} {
set myAngle [ measure angle [lindex [$sel get index]] frame $i molid $myMolid ]
set myData "$i, $myAngle"
puts $fd $myData
}
close $fd
}
NOTE: You could also just tag/label the atoms and open the label
dialogue and then click on the "graph" tab.

You'll have to be little more specific about what you are trying to
calculate here.'

As someone said earlier; Norman, I think; VMD can find namd2. Add it to
your PATH.
