Thanks Justin,

I had a look at the manual regarding tabulated potentials... for clarity,
The table values must contain: x, f(x), −f(x), g(x), −g(x), h(x), −h(x).

For my function then would f(x) = 1/r   g(x) = eps*[(sig/r)^12 -
2*(sig/r)^6]
and h(x) = -epsG*[exp-(((r-rG)^2) / (2*sigG^2))] ?

Also from the manual:
"The parameters A, B, and C are read from the topology.  The type of
interaction, Lennard-Jones or Buckingham, is determined by the nbfunc
parameter in the [ defaults ] directive of the topology."

How would the A,B & C terms be applied to my function with 5 constants? What
would 'nbfunc' have to be set to?



Sorry, I have no experience with complex cases like this.  Set up a small test 
case that can be easily verified and try your luck.  Tabulated potentials are 
definitely the way to go though, unless you want to completely overhaul the 
Gromacs code to implement the new potential equation expression :)
