NAME

       trjorder - orders molecules according to their distance to a group

       VERSION 4.0.1

SYNOPSIS

       trjorder  -f  traj.xtc -s topol.tpr -n index.ndx -o ordered.xtc -nshell
       nshell.xvg -[no]h -nice int -b time -e time -dt time -[no]xvgr -na  int
       -da int -[no]com -r real

DESCRIPTION

       trjorder  orders  molecules according to the smallest distance to atoms
       in a reference group. It will ask for a group of reference atoms and  a
       group  of  molecules.  For  each  frame  of the trajectory the selected
       molecules will be reordered according to the shortest distance  between
       atom  number   -da  in  the molecule and all the atoms in the reference
       group.  All  atoms  in  the  trajectory  are  written  to  the   output
       trajectory.

       trjorder  can  be  useful  for e.g. analyzing the n waters closest to a
       protein.  In that case the reference group would be the protein and the
       group  of molecules would consist of all the water atoms. When an index
       group of the first n waters is made, the ordered trajectory can be used
       with any Gromacs program to analyze the n closest waters.

       If  the output file is a pdb file, the distance to the reference target
       will be stored in the B-factor  field  in  order  to  color  with  e.g.
       rasmol.

       With  option   -nshell the number of molecules within a shell of radius
       -r around the refernce group are printed.
