 ## Usage
 Input to PyCGTOOL is GROMACS GRO and XTC files, along with two custom files: MAP and BND.  These files provide the atomistic-to-CG mapping and bonded topology respectively.  Example files are present in the [test/data](https://github.com/jag1g13/pycgtool/tree/master/test/data) directory.  The format of these files is described in the [full documentation] (http://pycgtool.readthedocs.io/en/master/).
