Hi,
I'd like to use the 'bigdcd' script
http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/script_library/
but in order:

-to compare with the first(or custom) frame of the trajectory 'frame0'
-and to write everything in the file 'RMSD plot vs numframes'
-to select backbone:
'set frame0 [atomselect top "protein and backbone and noh" frame 0]'

Could anyone help since I'm not so familiar with the script language?
We'll name this file 'rms_inicustom.tcl' and someone could source it
before 'source bigdcd.tcl'

Regards,Kos
