Dear amber,

While most of the output to the "mden" file containing the extensive
energy data from a simulation is self-explainitory some items are not
so clear, and manuals 1 and 2 provide no information.

Information regarding how the data on lines L9 and L5/6 is calculated
would be greatly appreciated. In particular how does the
"configuration" of the system
(box size, solute/solven pointers, etc...) affect the calculation of the
virial terms and what are the AV_* terms?

FYI: A search thru manual1.pdf and manual2.pdf for the keyword "moment"
does not provide information regarding the AV_* data and the word
"virial" only appears once in manual1 in relation to gibbs and not at
all in manual2.

Thanks,
Tom
