Thanks for the suggestion.
However, I have one question. If I use g_sgangle I can calculate the
angle formed by the atoms at the top and bottom of my nanotube, but if
the nanotube is considered as a whole (as a rigid system), and it tilts,
then the result would not show the tilt respect to the z axis of the
membrane, am I right?
Maybe I'm not clear on what you want. I haven't used g_sgangle much, but it
seems to me that option -oa ("Angle between the two groups specified in the
index file") would do what you want. Otherwise, g_sgangle -z might.

Thanks a lot for your help.
Best wishes,
Rebeca.
