I want to visualize my xtc and start pdf from MD simulations. I could not understand how can I obtain start.pdb which options should be choose after these script :" gmx trjconv -s md\_0\_10.tpr -f md\_0\_10\_center.xtc -o start.pdb -dump 0" and which type of files extensions will be used while visualize on VMD.
