It is produced. However, it seems having ALL the informations from '.atp', 'bon.itp' and 'nb.itp'... Since I guessed that I would get a "processed" topology file having information, which was blank in the original topology file, this looks pretty weird... > > > --- What does the "-pp" option generate when doing grompp-? >> >> > The -pp option gives you a "processed" topology, explicitly showing every > parameter that grompp assembled. Yes... That is what I understood... Since I do not think I had an appropriate "processed" topology, I guessed that there may be different meaning.
