Hey again!

The install of gromacs 3.3.3 on HP-UX is mostly working fine, but I'm getting some weird behaviour from grompp where it doesn't set the output filename correctly. Here is the grompp output from when I run the demo program, for example (the demo works fine until it gets to this step, after pdb2gmx and genbox):

------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----

checking input for internal consistency...
sh: /grace/bin/: Cannot create the specified file.

Program grompp, VERSION 3.3.3
Source code file: topio.c, line: 312

Fatal error:
Could not open /grace/bin/

I think it's getting the /grace/bin thing from my PATH variable of all things! Why it sticks it in there as the output filename is beyond me. I've looked at grompp.c and topio.c to see if I can find the problem, but my C coding skills are not great and I'm not sure what to do with all those pointers... can anyone suggest an easy fix for this? I tried an ugly hack to set outfile = "cppoutput" in topio.c, but that didn't work...

Thanks for any suggestions (other than getting rid of HP-UX...),
Chris.
