Re: [ESPResSo-users] Problem in main.tcl script

Hi Monika,

To access the box length which is stored in the core you have to use

puts $out "[setmd box_l]"

Please note, that the upcoming release of ESPResSo will have a much easier to use Python interface.  Maybe you want to have a look.

Cheers, Henri

Hi

I was trying to follow the instructions mentioned in the Espresso user manual(ug.pdf)

In section 15.2 it is mentoned that in order to get simplebilayer as intial configuration we need to run the following command

$ESPRESSO_SOURCE/$PLATFORM/Espresso scripts/main.tcl simplebilayer.tcl

But while running this command I am getting this error

"box_l not defined" line 265 main.tcl

Moreover I tried to lookup for related queries 

and found this --" Replace  'puts $out $box_l' " to " $blockfile $out write variable box_l"

Any help is appreciated.
