🦋 votca-csg(7) — the vibe guide 🦋

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for votca-csg, and literally the whole thing lives in the Miscellaneous Information Manual section of your man pages — that's the manual name, that's the header, we're not copying the line, we're folding it in like a cute little intro. slay. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

votca-csg — The VOTCA coarse-graining engine 👑

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Versatile Object-oriented Toolkit for Coarse-graining Applications (VOTCA for short, iykyk) is a package that's literally designed to reduce the amount of routine work when you're doing systematic coarse-graining of various systems. no cap, that's the whole point.

The core is written in C++, and the iterative methods are implemented using bash + perl. yes bestie, bash and perl, we love a retro moment. 🫶

Please visit the program site at http://www.votca.org — it's giving official, it's giving iconic. ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

The following commands make up the votca-csg suite. Please refer to their individual man pages for further details — each one has its own whole personality, fr fr.

  • csg_boltzmann — Performs tasks that are needed for simple Boltzmann inversion in an interactive environment. it's the chatty one, it wants you to talk to it live 💬
  • csg_call — Calls script from the interactive framework for the user. the little messenger go-between 🧚
  • csg_density — Calculates all kind of density profiles. all kinds. every kind. density everywhere 🌈
  • csg_dlptopol — Create skeleton for dlpoly topology based on atomistic topology and a mapping file. 🦴
  • csg_dump — Prints atoms that are read from a topology file to help debug atom naming. the debug bestie, the snitch, the icon 🔍
  • csg_fmatch — Performs force matching (also called multiscale coarse-graining). yes it has two names, main character energy ⭐
  • csg_gmxtopol — Create skeleton for gromacs topology based on atomistic topology and a mapping file. the gromacs sibling of csg_dlptopol 🧬
  • csg_imc_solver — Is internally called by inversion scripts to solve matrix equation for inverse Monte Carlo (imc). lowkey the math one, it does NOT get called by you directly 🤫
  • csg_inverse — Starts the script to run iterative Boltzmann inverse (ibi) or inverse Monte Carlo (imc), etc. the big boss of the iteration era 👑
  • csg_map — Map a reference trajectory to a coarse-grained trajectory. glow-down time (affectionate) 🗺️
  • csg_property — Helper program called by inverse scripts to parse xml file. the quiet little xml gremlin 🙈
  • csg_resample — Changes grid + interval and interpolated any sort of table files. the glow-up artist for your tables 📈
  • csg_reupdate — Reform the relative entropy update in inverse scripts. 🔁
  • csg_stat — Calculates all kind of distributions (bonded + non-bonded). the stats girlie, she sees all 📊
