			This directory has a Makefile.lammps file with settings that allows
			LAMMPS to dynamically link to the VMD molfile library. This is
			required to use the USER-MOLFILE package and its interface to the dump
			and write_dump commands in a LAMMPS input script.

			More information about the VMD molfile plugins can be found at
			http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/plugins/molfile.

			More specifically, to be able to dynamically load and execute the
			plugins from inside LAMMPS, you need to link with a system library
			containing functions like dlopen(), dlsym() and so on for dynamic
			linking of executable code into an executable. This library is
			defined by setting the molfile_SYSLIB variable in the Makefile.lammps
			file in this dir.

			For Linux and most current unix-like operating systems, this can be
			kept at the default setting of "-ldl" (on some platforms this library
			is called "-ldld"). For compilation on Windows, a slightly different
			mechanism is used that is part of the Windows programming environment
			and this library is not needed.

			See the header of Makefile.lammps for more info.
