Hello,
Thanks a lot for your help. I get the indexes of the protein using
seq ?f ?%04g? ?s " " 2573
so I get a file of the type
0001 0002 0003 0004 (...)2573
I have also tried with a index file of the type
1 2 3 (...) 2573
But any of them gives me an adequate visualization of the dcd file
generated with catdcd using vmd. Do you think is it problem of the
index numbers?
