> There is a script in the gromacs package (at least up to 5.1.2) called demux.pl . You can use it to get more human friendly information out of your REMD runs ( see http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/REMD for some very sparse info on demux.pl ). Basically you feed it the log file and it provides you with some useful output files. You can then use the -demux option to trjcat to get demuxed xtc files.  The demux.pl script is not perfect. The last time I looked it could not handle more than X frames (I forget how many, but I and others posted fixes to the gmx mailing list a few years ago). Also, it relies on a sensible .log file and if you (1) run REMD then (2) have some type of crash or walltime overrun that does not give you .cpt files then (3) you restart REMD and it runs fine past the point of the previous crash, then demux.pl will give you good data. However, if you go through steps 1 and 2 above and then you restart REMS and it crashed again before you get to the 
> point of the first crash then even if you again restart and you pass this point the log file will never be OK for demux.pl . I have some scrips that can recover from such an error but they are generally not necessary unless you have a run on a cluster that is unstable over some period. I have pasted my fix script below for posterity, though you very likely don't need it.

> Hi, I have run a REMD, which including 46 replicas. I searched how to analyze my REMD statistics, but I am still confused how to analyze my result; how to generate a continuous a energy distribution curve; how to deal with 46 .log files. It seems so complicated.
