16 <p>
17 Index groups are necessary for almost every gromacs program.
18 All these programs can generate default index groups. You ONLY
19 have to use make_<a href="ndx.html">ndx</a> when you need SPECIAL index groups.
20 There is a default index group for the whole system, 9 default
21 index groups are generated for proteins, a default index group
22 is generated for every other residue name.<p>
23 When no index file is supplied, also make_<a href="ndx.html">ndx</a> will generate the
24 default groups.
25 With the index editor you can select on atom, residue and chain names
26 and numbers.
27 When a run input file is supplied you can also select on atom type.
28 You can use NOT, AND and OR, you can split groups
29 into chains, residues or atoms. You can delete and rename groups.<p>
30 The atom numbering in the editor and the index file starts at 1.
