Dear GROMACS Gurus,
I am trying to create an infinite sheet of graphene using periodic boundary conditions. I created a sheet which fills the entire xy plane and thought that all I needed to do was put the line "pbc=xy" into the mdp file. However, when I run the simulation, I get the following error:

ERROR: invalid enum 'xy' for variable pbc, using 'xyz'
Next time use one of: 'xyz' 'no' 'full'

This error confuses me since in the manual it clearly states on page 146, within the Run Parameters and Programs section, that the options for pbc are 'xyz', 'no', or 'xy', which is in contradiction to the error message.

Can you please resolve this contradiction for me and let me know if there is something else I need to do in order to get a simulation running with periodic boundary conditions?

pbc=xy is only implemented in GROMACS 4. Are you using an earlier version?

(Hint: it's always best to quote your version when asking for help!)
