			# Description:
			# ------------
			#
			# This file is a LAMMPS input script for carrying out a NEMD simulation of
			# SPC/E water using the eHEX/a algorithm. The run produces two files:
			# "out.Tspce_ehex" contains the temperature profile and "out.Espce_ehex" the time
			# evolution of the total energy.
