Hi,

I have to questions regarding genion.

1) Is there a possibility to tell genion in advance which group of molecules to replace by ions (for me, solvent is always the choice so I want to skript it but I did not find any parameters for this)?

2) I want to neutralize a charged system. Therefore, as I found out, I can use the -neutral option. But it seems to me that this option does not work if I do not specify a concentration (system has a charge of -52): genion -s system_in_solvent.tpr -o solventions.gro -p topol_water.top -neutral
[snap]
Reading file system_in_solvent.tpr, VERSION 4.5.4 (single precision)
Using a coulomb cut-off of 1 nm
No ions to add and no potential to calculate.

If I use genion {parameters as above} -conc 0.0 it also won't add ions but if I try e.g. genion {parameters as above} -c 0.0001, it will add 52 NA and 0 CL ions which corresponds to a neutral system (with -c 0.001, it will add 53 NA and 1 CL ions, meaning resulting salt concentration is > 0). I use the amber99sb forcefield. Is this behaviour desired and do I miss the point of the -neutral option not working without specifying a concentration?

Thanks for your help,
Matthias Ernst
