GMX-CONVERT-TPR(1) GROMACS GMX-CONVERT-TPR(1)

NAME

gmx-convert-tpr - Make a modifed run-input file

SYNOPSIS

gmx convert-tpr [-s [<.tpr/.gro/...>]] [-n [<.ndx>]]

[-o [<.tpr/.gro/...>]] [-extend <time>] [-until <time>]
[-nsteps <int>]


DESCRIPTION

gmx convert-tpr can edit run input files in three ways.

1. by modifying the number of steps in a run input file with options -extend, -until or -nsteps (nsteps=-1 means unlimited number of steps)

2. by creating a .tpx file for a subset of your original tpx file, which is useful when you want to remove the solvent from your .tpx file, or when you want to make e.g. a pure Calpha .tpx file. Note that you may need to use -nsteps -1 (or similar) to get this to work. WARNING: this .tpx file is not fully functional.

3. by setting the charges of a specified group to zero. This is useful when doing free energy estimates using the LIE (Linear Interaction Energy) method.
