Hi,

I am confused a bit by this answer -- isn't the file specified by -s used
for defining the rmsf (this is what is called the "reference" structure in
the documentation, and I have found that my results do vary using a
different "-s" file)...?  Or is that just used for fitting and then the
average of the resulting fitted structures is used for the rmsf?
Specifically, what is the "-s" uased for in this case?

It is used for fitting. RMSF is simply the standard deviation of position, so an average structure is computed from the selected frames and the RMSF is computed from it.
