I don't know what you mean by cross correlation, but if it fits my point of
view, here is one way to do it :
Monitor the distances between these residues (or any relevant parameter to
you), and use xmgrace to do the correlation.
In XmGrace, (available at http://plasma-gate.weizmann.ac.il/Grace/), you can
load the two sets independently, and then do a correlation by going in :
Data -> Transformations -> Evaluate expression, and in the dialog box that
appear, write this :
assuming your data file is like x, y :
copy s0 to s2 (apply)
s2.x=s0.y (apply)
s2.y=s1.y (apply)

Like this, you'll have the cross correlation you need.
