NAME
       gmx-view - View a trajectory on an X-Windows terminal

SYNOPSIS
       gmx view [-f [<.xtc/.trr/...>]] [-s [<.tpr/.tpb/...>]] [-n [<.ndx>]]
                [-nice <int>] [-b <time>] [-e <time>] [-dt <time>]

DESCRIPTION
       gmx view is the GROMACS trajectory viewer. This program reads a
       trajectory file, a run input file and an index file and plots a 3D
       structure of your molecule on your standard X Window screen. No need
       for a high end graphics workstation, it even works on Monochrome
       screens.

       The following features have been implemented: 3D view, rotation,
       translation and scaling of your molecule(s), labels on atoms, animation
       of trajectories, hardcopy in PostScript format, user defined
       atom-filters runs on MIT-X (real X), open windows and motif, user
       friendly menus, option to remove periodicity, option to show
       computational box.

       Some of the more common X command line options can be used: -bg, -fg
       change colors, -font fontname changes the font.

OPTIONS
       Options to specify input and output files:

       -f [<.xtc/.trr/...>] (traj.xtc) (Input)
           Trajectory: xtc trr cpt trj gro g96 pdb tng

       -s [<.tpr/.tpb/...>] (topol.tpr) (Input)
           Run input file: tpr tpb tpa

       -n [<.ndx>] (index.ndx) (Input, Optional)
           Index file

       Other options:

       -nice <int> (0)
           Set the nicelevel

       -b <time> (0)
           First frame (ps) to read from trajectory

       -e <time> (0)
           Last frame (ps) to read from trajectory

       -dt <time> (0)
           Only use frame when t MOD dt = first time (ps)

KNOWN ISSUES
       - Balls option does not work

       - Some times dumps core without a good reason
