NAME
     gmx-awh - Extract data from an accelerated weight histogram (AWH) run

SYNOPSIS
	gmx awh [-f [<.edr>]] [-s [<.tpr>]] [-o [<.xvg>]] [-fric [<.xvg>]]
		[-b <time>] [-e <time>] [-[no]w] [-xvg <enum>] [-skip <int>]
		[-[no]more] [-[no]kt]

DESCRIPTION
     gmx  awh extracts AWH data from an energy file.  One or two files are writ-
     ten per AWH bias per time frame.  The bias index, if more than one, is  ap-
     pended  to  the file, as well as the time of the frame. By default only the
     PMF is printed.  With -more the bias, target and  coordinate  distributions
     are  also printed, as well as the metric sqrt(det(friction_tensor)) normal-
     ized such that the average is 1.  Option -fric prints all components of the
     friction tensor to an additional set of files.

OPTIONS
     Options to specify input files:

     -f [<.edr>] (ener.edr)
	    Energy file

     -s [<.tpr>] (topol.tpr)
	    Portable xdr run input file

     Options to specify output files:

     -o [<.xvg>] (awh.xvg)
	    xvgr/xmgr file

     -fric [<.xvg>] (friction.xvg) (Optional)
	    xvgr/xmgr file

     Other options:

     -b <time> (0)
	    Time of first frame to read from trajectory (default unit ps)

     -e <time> (0)
	    Time of last frame to read from trajectory (default unit ps)

     -[no]w (no)
	    View output .xvg, .xpm, .eps and .pdb files

     -xvg <enum> (xmgrace)
	    xvg plot formatting: xmgrace, xmgr, none

     -skip <int> (0)
	    Skip number of frames between data points

     -[no]more (no)
	    Print more output

     -[no]kt (no)
	    Print free energy output in units of kT instead of kJ/mol
