how to choose the frequency at which stress is calculated

[lar... at lbl.gov]

Hi Matt,

I have been trying to use REFTRAJ to calculate the stress on some frames 
from a trajectory that I already ran but I don't seem to get it to work. 
The simulation in the REFTRAJ ensemble runs fine but the outputs are zero 
for the stress and other quantities in the *.ener file. I have attached 
here the input file as well as the outputs for energy and stress. I am not 
sure what I'm doing wrong so any pointer would be highly appreciated. 
Thanks in advance for your help!

Best,
Luis
