+A fortran program for the calculation of some eigenvectors of a large real,
+symmetrical, matrix.
+If the matrix was obtained, for instance, with the PDBMAT program, these
+eigenvectors correspond to the low-frequency normal modes (i.e., mostly
+those with a collective character) of the system. Note that in the case of
+proteins, low-frequency normal modes thus obtained are found to be very close
+to those obtained with standard, much more realistic (e.g., all atoms with
+empirical force fields), models.
+
+The method used rests upon the RTB approximation (standing for
+Rotations-Translations-of-Blocks). Within the frame of this approximation,
+blocks of n (n=1,2,...) consecutive monomers (amino-acid residues) are
+assumed to behave like rigid bodies.
+
+Requirements: a matrix in the "i j non-zero-ij-matrix-element" format.
+A file with the coordinates of the system, in the PDB or "x y z mass
+block-number" format.
