    I'd suggest starting with a small trajectory and a basic clustering
    method to help you eliminate possible sources of problems. If things
    are working, add complexity.<br>

    I don't think you need a new .tpr, or a .tpr at all. Nothing about
    the clustering method requires knowledge of molecule or parameter
    definitions, so the original .tpr or the coordinate file that made
    it will do. Surely the clustering is based on RMS after fitting of
    the two structures under consideration, and now even the coordinates
    in the g_cluster -s file don't matter. Pre-processing the trajectory
    can matter - you probably want whole molecules in the simulation
    cell.<br>
