After further study of the documentation, I find myself getting more confused rather than 
less.  I see that the [pairs] and [pairtypes] directives only specify LJ parameters, not 
Coulomb parameters.  (There's a function type 2 for [pairs] that does include charges, 
but the manual says that function type is only used for free energy calculations.)  How 
do I select the latter when gen-pairs is off?  Is it simply assumed that 1-4 Coulomb 
interactions are never reduced for force fields that don't use gen-pairs?  Table 5.5 
lists an alternate directive, [pairs_nb] that does specify Coulomb parameters as well as 
LJ.  But no other mention of this directive appears anywhere else in the manual, there 
doesn't seem to be any corresponding [pairtypes] option, and a grep reveals that 
"pairs_nb" never occurs in any file in the entire top directory.

What am I misunderstanding?


Which version of the manual are you using? I recall the discussion on [pairs_nb] being absent in an older version, but manual section 5.3.4 in version 4.6.1 has lots of discussion on [pairs_nb].
