gmx-rama - Compute Ramachandran plots

SYNOPSIS

    gmx rama [-f [<.xtc/.trr/...>]] [-s [<.tpr>]] [-o [<.xvg>]] [-b <time>]
             [-e <time>] [-dt <time>] [-[no]w] [-xvg <enum>]

DESCRIPTION

gmx rama selects the phi/psi dihedral combinations from your topology file and computes these as a function of time. Using simple Unix tools such as grep you can select out specific residues.

OPTIONS

Options to specify input files:

-s [<.tpr>] (topol.tpr)
    Portable xdr run input file

    Options to specify output files:

-o [<.xvg>] (rama.xvg)
    xvgr/xmgr file

    Other options:

-b <time> (0)
    Time of first frame to read from trajectory (default unit ps)

-e <time> (0)
    Time of last frame to read from trajectory (default unit ps)

-dt <time> (0)
    Only use frame when t MOD dt = first time (default unit ps)

-[no]w (no)
    View output .xvg, .xpm, .eps and .pdb files
