Dear Gromacs users,

I used do_dssp to calculate the secondary structure of peptide. From the output scount.xvg file, the last column shows the number of residues that is "chain separator". At the end of the scount.xvg file, the last line provide the percentage of different secondary structures. The unusual is the normalization includes the "chain separator" column (see a example below). This seems like an error. Is there any other suggestion? I re-calculate the percentage of various secondary structures and leave the "chain separator" out.

Thank you,
Loan

For example:

# do_dssp is part of G R O M A C S:
