DESCRIPTION

15       ngmx is the Gromacs trajectory viewer. This program reads a  trajectory
16       file,  a  run  input file and an index file and plots a 3D structure of
17       your molecule on your standard X Window screen. No need for a high  end
18       graphics workstation, it even works on Monochrome screens.
19
20
21       The following features have been implemented: 3D view, rotation, trans‐
22       lation and scaling of your molecule(s), labels on atoms,  animation  of
23       trajectories,  hardcopy in PostScript format, user defined atom-filters
24       runs on MIT-X (real X), open windows and motif,  user  friendly  menus,
25       option to remove periodicity, option to show computational box.
26

28       Some of the more common X command line options can be used:
