19 gmx convert-trj converts trajectory files between different formats.
20 The module supports writing all GROMACS supported file formats from the
21 supported input formats.
22
23 Included is also a selection of possible options to modify individual
24 trajectory frames, including options to produce slimmer output files.
25 It is also possible to replace the particle information stored in the
26 input trajectory with those from a structure file
27
28 The module can also generate subsets of trajectories based on user sup‐
29 plied selections.
30
32 Options to specify input files:
33
34 -f [<.xtc/.trr/...>] (traj.xtc) (Optional)
35 Input trajectory or single configuration: xtc trr cpt gro g96
36 pdb tng
37
38 -s [<.tpr/.gro/...>] (topol.tpr) (Optional)
39 Input structure: tpr gro g96 pdb brk ent
40
41 -n [<.ndx>] (index.ndx) (Optional)
42 Extra index groups
43
44 Options to specify output files:
45
46 -o [<.xtc/.trr/...>] (trajout.xtc)
47 Output trajectory: xtc trr cpt gro g96 pdb tng
