We're a bit snowed in here in Athens. UGA is closing tomorrow for the third day running. We might not be so fast at testing, but I promise we'll do it soon. Thanks for doing that!

Hi all,

Sander can now read the netcdf restart format as well as write.
Reading the format is currently controlled through the use of ntx.
ntx=8 reads coordinates only (analogous to ntx=1), and ntx=9 reads
coordinates and velocities. As with standard restart files the box
information is read in the ewald setup routines; the netcdf restart
format is automatically detected there.

The netcdf restart format could also be automatically detected in the
getcor() routine, but I figured it's better (at least initially) to
keep file behavior consistent. It can be easily changed so that ntx is
for example automatically chosen (8 or 9) if a netcdf restart is
detected as INPCRD and based on the value of irest.

Please experiment if you want and let me know if there are any
problems with the format.

-Dan
