[Chimera-users] Question about peptide connection

The modeller tool seems to be working for me, thank you very much! I will
email again if any problems arise with it.

One more question - is there a command or a tool I can use to find the
internal energy of a peptide? I have been running a 1 DS 0 CGS minimization
which means my peptide moves just slightly but I'm wondering if there is a
better way to do it.
