DESCRIPTION

       g_rmsdist  computes  the  root mean square deviation of atom distances,
       which has the advantage that no fit is  needed  like  in  standard  RMS
       deviation  as computed by g_rms.  The reference structure is taken from
       the structure file.  The rmsd at time t is calculated as the rms of the
       differences  in  distance between atom-pairs in the reference structure
       and the structure at time t.

       g_rmsdist can also produce matrices of the rms distances, rms distances
       scaled  with the mean distance and the mean distances and matrices with
       NMR averaged distances (1/r3 and 1/r6  averaging).  Finally,  lists  of
       atom  pairs  with  1/r3  and  1/r6  averaged distance below the maximum
       distance ( -max, which will  default  to  0.6  in  this  case)  can  be
       generated, by default averaging over equivalent hydrogens (all triplets
       of hydrogens named *[123]). Additionally a list of equivalent atoms can
       be  supplied  ( -equiv), each line containing a set of equivalent atoms
       specified as residue number and name and atom name; e.g.:

        3 SER  HB1 3 SER  HB2

       Residue and atom names must exactly match those in the structure  file,
       including case. Specifying non-sequential atoms is undefined.
