Almost all freely available scientific softwares suffer from lack of an appropriate graphical user interface. NAMD is a parallel molecular dynamics code for large biomolecular systems. Although the NAMD graphical interface plug-in for VMD provides an easy to use interface for setting up common NAMD simulation jobs, but in the case of analyzing the results and converting textual outputs to more useful graphical representations, we do not have a complete solution. Browsing the web reveals that apart from some log-file parsers, there is no suitable GUI based analyzing tool.
The main target of NAMDView is providing a GUI based analyzing and visualization tool for NAMD output files such as log-file, free energy calculation output files and etc.
