Description
gmxconvert-tpr can edit run input files in three ways.
1. by modifying the number of steps in a run input file with options -extend, -until or -nsteps
(nsteps=-1 means unlimited number of steps)
2. by creating a .tpx file for a subset of your original tpx file, which is useful when you want to
remove the solvent from your .tpx file, or when you want to make e.g. a pure Calpha .tpx file. Note that
you may need to use -nsteps-1 (or similar) to get this to work. WARNING:this.tpxfileisnotfullyfunctional.
3. by setting the charges of a specified group to zero. This is useful when doing free energy estimates
using the LIE (Linear Interaction Energy) method.

Options
Options to specify input files:
-s[<.tpr/.gro/...>](topol.tpr)
Run input file to modify: tprgrog96pdb brk ent
-n[<.ndx>](index.ndx)(Optional)
File containing additional index groups
Options to specify output files:
-o[<.tpr/.gro/...>](tprout.tpr)(Optional)
Generated modified run input file: tprgrog96pdb brk ent
Other options:
-extend<time>(0)
Extend runtime by this amount (ps)
-until<time>(0)
Extend runtime until this ending time (ps)
-nsteps<int>(0)
Change the number of steps remaining to be made
-[no]generate_velocities(no)
Reassign velocities, using a generated seed unless one is explicitly set
-velocity_temp<real>(300)
Temperature to use when generating velocities
-velocity_seed<int>(-1)
Random seed for velocities. If value is -1, a new one is generated
