I am using carnal to create output in the form of stream with the 10ps intervals for the last 300ps of my MD run. I am using OUTPUT COORD s2 s1 SELECT (1, 20, 40, 60, 80 .... ) ATOM 504; The line for the select is getting to big ( I have to go to up to 600 with the 20 intervals. In carnal lines may not exceed 80 characters. So, I am out of space.... How can it be fixed ????Simple answer: you can continue on the next line: COORD s2 s1 SELECT (1, 20, 40, 60, 80 .... ) ATOM 504; Better answer: COORD s2 s1 ( MOD 20 ) ATOM 504; From the manual: MOD h Select every h'th set from the stream. Note that this option selects files for output only, and does not affect measurements on the stream, as opposed to the STREAM WIN option, which pre-selects sets for all the other commands.
