<div>Hi,</div>
<div> It might be a very minor issue but I find in versions of
gromacs 4.5.4, the output log file ( in verbose mode) writes
the progress of the simulation in a single line ( unlike in
previous gromacs 4.0.7 version) where it used to write the
progress in a new lines. As a result, in gromacs4.5.4, opening
a logfile or issuing unix 'tail' command to see last few lines
becomes a bit time-consuming as the progress is written in a
single line.</div>

<div>An example is shown below for gromacs 4.5.4:</div>
<div> ^Mstep 2100, will finish Sat Dec 3 19:55:12 2011vol 0.79
imb F 0% ^Mstep 2200, will finish Sat Dec 3 19:54:59
2011vol 0.80 imb F 1% ^Mstep 2300, will finish Sat Dec 3
19:54:49 2011vol 0.79 imb F 1% ^Mstep 2400, will finish Sat
Dec 3 19:54:40 2011vol 0.80 imb F 0% ^Mstep 2500, will
finish Sat Dec 3 19:54:31 2011vol 0.80 imb F 1% ^Mstep
2600, will finish Sat Dec 3 19:54:22 2011vol 0.80 imb F 1%
^Mstep 2700, will finish Sat Dec 3</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I wonder whether there is an fix for this minor issue. <br>

The behaviour where mdrun appears to write over the previous "will
finish" line has been in place for many years. In fact, the "old
lines" are always still there. I think some difference in your
workflow must be the explanation for your observation.<br>
