I am observing with vmd 1.9.2. that on Debian GNU Linux amd64 wheezy/gnome,
fully updated, in the vmd script (csh as indicated below)
#!/bin/csh
> set defaultvmddir="/usr/local/lib/vmd"

> #!/bin/csh -f

I had to comment out as follows:
# detect if we have rlwrap available to have commandline editing
> set vmdprefixcmd=""
> if (("${ARCH}" == "LINUX") || ("${ARCH}" == "LINUXAMD64")) then
> # set rlwrap=`which rlwrap`
> # if ( -x "$rlwrap" ) then

> # set vmdprefixcmd="rlwrap -C vmd -c -b(){}[],&^%#;|\\ -f

> # else

otherwise no match for rlwrap, although this is installed, and vmd is not
launched.
A consequence is that, with ffTK, the section "Assign Missing Params by
Analogy" does not work properly: no window is opened below the line for
Type Epsilon Rmin/2 Epsilon,1-4 Rmin/2,1-4
so that no replacement of params can be carried out.
........................
In contrast, no such problems with Debian amd64 jessy/Xfce: rlwap does work
and the above-said window allows to see the params.
So, the comparison is not straightforward and, to me, gnome is giving a
lot of other problems that Xfce does not.
Thanks for advice as to fixing on wheezy/gnome
