Well a typical replica-exchange MD workflow for me includes a script that takes some PDB file with the right protein configuration, and runs pdb2gmx, editconf, genion and grompp using expect and various command line flags to generate files suitable for starting equilibrations. These tend to get run in multiple batch scripts, then another script to make the simulation run input files. Then a batch script that runs a simulation, optionally using tpbconv to create continuation run input files as required, and resubmits a copy of itself afterwards at the end, to create an infinite loop until user interaction or machine crash intervenes.
