12 The tpr file extension stands for portable binary run input file. This file
13 contains the starting structure of your simulation, the molecular topology
14 and all the simulation parameters. Because this file is in binary format it
15 cannot be read with a normal editor. To read a portable binary run input
16 file type:
17 <PRE>
18 % <a href="gmxdump.html">gmxdump</a> -s topol.tpr

21 <PRE>
22 % gmxdump -s topol.tpr | more
23 </PRE>
