Hello all,

I’m currently working on lammps and for the visualization of lammps output I’m using GOpenMol tools. Gopenmol does not accept the dump output, i need to convert it in .xyz format which could be done using pizza.py tools. I have downloaded this tool but dont know how to use it as I’m very new to python. Can anyone help me regarding this.

As part of LAMMPS (not Pizza.py) there is a tools/python/dump2xyz.py
Python script which uses the relevant Pizza.py modules (dump and xyz)
to do what you want. It just puts a bit of syntactic sugar around the
direct Pizza.py commands.

why don't you just dump to xyz or dcd output, which
should be supported by gopenmol.
