Dear GMX Users
I have some questions when using -rerun in mdrun to get some specific energy 
for my groups. Let me describe my question in this way.
I have a system containing some groups which include A and B and others. My 
goal is to calculate the energy between A and B.
So Here is my steps:
first, I use gmx trjconv to get trajectory contains only A and B called A_B.xtc.
Second, I grompp a new tpr which is also only contain group A and B called 
A_B.tpr.
Third, I use mdrun -rerun A_B.xtc -s A_B.tpr -v -deffnm energy_A_B
Last, I use gmx energy -f energy_A_B.edr and choose "Total Energy" to get total 
energy of A_B system.
My question is, by this way, I can get the total energy (name it E_total), but 
in my opinion this energy is composed of the energy

between A and A (name it E_A_A), energy between B and B (name it E_B_B), and 
energy between A and B (name it E_A_B). I only care

about E_A_B. By now, I have to repeat above four steps to get E_A_A, and E_B_B, 
then use E_total minus E_A_A and E_B_B to get E_A_B.

This is a very tedious work.
I am not quite familiar with -rerun, Is there any ingenious method to get E_A_B 
? I am not quite familiar with -rerun?

Just set:

energygrps = A B

and create a new .tpr, which is used for the rerun.
