NAME
       g_filter - frequency filters trajectories, useful for making smooth movies

       VERSION 4.5.4-dev-20110404-bc5695c

SYNOPSIS
       g_filter  -f  traj.xtc  -s  topol.tpr  -n index.ndx -ol lowpass.xtc -oh highpass.xtc -[no]h -[no]version -nice int -b time -e time -dt time
       -[no]w -nf int -[no]all -[no]nojump -[no]fit

DESCRIPTION
	g_filter performs frequency filtering on a trajectory.	The filter shape is cos(pi t/A) + 1 from -A to +A, where A is given by the  option
       -nf  times  the	time step in the input trajectory.  This filter reduces fluctuations with period A by 85%, with period 2*A by 50% and with
       period 3*A by 17% for low-pass filtering.  Both a low-pass and high-pass filtered trajectory can be written.

       Option  -ol writes a low-pass filtered trajectory.  A frame is written every  -nf input frames.	This ratio of  filter  length  and  output
       interval  ensures a good suppression of aliasing of high-frequency motion, which is useful for making smooth movies. Also averages of prop-
       erties which are linear in the coordinates are preserved, since all input frames are weighted equally in the output.  When all  frames  are
       needed, use the	-all option.

       Option	-oh  writes  a	high-pass filtered trajectory.	The high-pass filtered coordinates are added to the coordinates from the structure
       file. When using high-pass filtering use  -fit or make sure you use a trajectory that has been fitted on the coordinates in  the  structure
       file.
