Hi All,

I'm sorry I didn't email the list on this. Dr. Gohlker's revised perl
scripts and many new examples (for the hybrid mmpbsa) have been
packaged in an Amber10 bugfix (17). You can download and try it out.
All reported problems on the list are gone after the fix in our tests.

All the best,
Ray
