GROMOS initial release

I read here that GROMOS has been developed since 1978 but I am unable to find evidence of a "release" until GROMOS87. E.g. searching on Google scholar for "GROMOS" before 1987 only seems to turn up misdated records. If there was indeed a release of GROMOS in 1978 as this article claims, what was it called and are there any records of it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leoteo87 (talk • contribs) 23:48, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

GROMOS (file format) needed

A new page GROMOS (file format) is needed, which should cross link to Chemical file format and use also the proper [[Category:Chemical file format]] category. JKW 16:05, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Parameter sets

Not sure if appropriate, but there are a number of parameter sets for this forcefield, may be this should be mentioned? --Dr DBW (talk) 05:43, 8 September 2009 (UTC) Added new versions --Dr DBW (talk) 00:09, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
