Hello David,<br>
Then why are the files 11.xvg and 111.xvg same as first half of 1.xvg
and the second half of 1.xvg respectively, in other words the total
dipole moment of the frames for the whole trajectory is same as when
calculated separately for the first and second halves and concatenated,
but not the dipole plus fluctuations...........(22.xvg and 222.xvg are
different compared to 2.xvg)...<br>
Thanks,<br>
