Hi everyone!

I intend to create a trajectory file (in pdb format) of atoms dynamically 
indexed by g_select. However, I failed to produce the correct pdb file. Here is 
how I did it. Kindle help please.

1. I created the index file using g_select for water oxygen atoms within 0.4 nm 
of Atom 3


g_select -f A.xtc -s A.tpr -select 'resname SOL name OW and within 0.4 of 
atomnr 3' -on X_ndx.

The first few lines of X.ndx look like this

[ resname_SOL_and_name_OW_and_within_0.398_of_atomnr_3_0.000 ]

[ resname_SOL_and_name_OW_and_within_0.398_of_atomnr_3_0.200 ]
 685 
[ resname_SOL_and_name_OW_and_within_0.398_of_atomnr_3_0.400 ]
 685 1045 



2. Then I went into trjconv to create a pdb of these water oxygens

trjconv -f A.xtc -s A.tpr -o X.pdb -n X.ndx

After keying in Enter, I see a list of the the dynamic groups that looks like 
the ones above. I have 10000 groups in the list corresponding to 10000 frames 
but within each frame having different number/indices of water oxygens. I then 
get a prompt asking me to "select a group". I'm not quite sure what number to 
type but I tried entering "0", "0 to 10000", but both gave me wrong pdb files. 
They dont match with the indices given in X.ndx. How do I tell Gromacs to 
create a pdb file for these specific atoms? And next time I use a dynamic 
index, what do I type Gromacs asks to "select a group"? Thanks..

Sincerely,

Bernard
