+Input files
 ===============
 
+**PolyConf**
+
 *PolyConf* assembles polymer pdb files by tiling individual monomer pdb files.  Monomer PDB files should 
 include all monomer atoms that will be present in the final polymer, dummy atoms corresponding to 
 connectivity with adjacent monomers, and `CONECT` records that describe the connectivity between
 monomer atoms.
 
-These coordinate files should represent a sensible monomer geometry as could be found in the final

-it is often convenient if the monomer is in a conformation where atoms corresponding to adjacent monomers 
-are as far as possible from other atoms, and pointed away from other attachment points.
+*PolyConf* does not require any preprocessing of monomer .pdb files.

+**PolyBuild**
 
 *PolyBuild* requires monomer itp files, which are then converted into gromacs residue topology database 
 entries, and a coordinate file containing a complete structure of the intended polymer.  This structure can 
 be created with PolyConf, manually, or by using other structure creation packages.
