Rst7 files generated by Amber cpptraj are not readable by VMD 1.9.3 I found
the following in the mailing list. Has this bug been fixed yet? I am using
VMD 1.9.3 on Win7 Pro and RHEL Linux. Both suffer from this issue.

Thanks for any assistance.

Vlad,
  If you can send me some gzipped example files that have this formatting,
I can take a crack at it when I get a chance.
