Hi all,
I am trying to get familiar with cp2k metadynamics calculation.
How   can I plot the free energy profile as function  of collective variable ?
What type of information are writed in standar output file like COLVAR,HILL,FREE_ENERGY_INFO etc... 
Can I use these informations for plot free energy profile?

I compiled fep.sopt (In /cp2k/makefile directory I type: make fep.sopt)
and I have a standard input for MM molecular dynamics.
This is  my input file. 
(There are some imprecisions but it is only an example....)
