SYNOPSIS
ngmx -f traj.xtc -s topol.tpr -n index.ndx -[no]h -[no]version -nice int -b time -e time -dt timeDESCRIPTION
ngmx is the GROMACS trajectory viewer. This program reads a trajectory file, a run input file and an index file and plots a 3D structure of your molecule on your standard X Window screen. No need for a high end graphics workstation, it even works on Monochrome screens.
The following features have been implemented: 3D view, rotation, translation and scaling of your molecule(s), labels on atoms, animation of trajectories, hardcopy in PostScript format, user defined atom-filters runs on MIT-X (real X), open windows and motif, user friendly menus, option to remove periodicity, option to show computational box.
Some of the more common X command line options can be used: -bg, -fg change colors, -font fontname changes the font.
