 The conformations of alanine dipeptide are characterized by the dihedral angles of the backbone.

 the torsional angle $\phi$ is C-N-C-C, while $\psi$ is N-C-C-N along the backbone.

-  - Enter the input file ''geo.in'' and define the dihedral angles. //Note:// While VMD starts counting atoms from 0, CP2K starts from 1. I.e. you need to increase all indices determined previously by 1.
+  - The atomic indices defining the dihedral indices in the input file ''geo.in'' are missing. Replace ''I1'' to ''I4'' by the atomic indices determined previously. //Note:// While VMD starts counting atoms from 0, CP2K starts counting from 1, i.e. the VMD indices need to be increased by 1.
   - Use ''perform-gopt.sh'' to perform the grid of geometry optimizations.
-  - Use ''epot.gp'' to plot your results. Which are the two most favoured conformations?
+  - Use gnuplot to plot the potential energy surface (we have provided a script ''epot.gp''). Which are the two most favoured conformations?
   - Compare with Figure 3 of [[doi>10.1073/pnas.100127697]].
