Hi,
  Charles Schwieters sent this note about rotating dihedrals in VMD-XPLOR,
but it bounced due to the anti-spam measures in place on VMD-L,
so I'm forwarding it for others to read:

vmd-xplor (http://vmd-xplor.cit.nih.gov/)
has a gui which has this functionality. However, the included version
of VMD lags well behind current development.
