Sorry but the help does not help me... In anycase, the help of g_rmsdist say: "g_rmsdist computes the root mean square deviation of atom distances, which
has the advantage that no fit is needed like in standard RMS deviation as
computed by g_rms..."; so no fit is needed, for me it means that there is no superimposition... Can you explain me where I'm wrong?

Hi Valerio,

Check the help for both tools. That explains it all.
Oh, and you're not correct ;)

Cheers,

Dear all,

I need to calculate the RMSD of a protein during time. So that I've
calculated the trajectory; for the calculation which tool should I use?
g_rms or g_rmsdist ? Which is the difference between these two tools? If I'm
right the main difference is that with g_rms the structure at the time t is
superimposed to the reference structure before calculate the RMSD, while
with g_rmsdist the RMSD is calculated without any superimposition, am I
correct?
