For the <I>quickmin</I> and <I>fire</I> minimization styles, the <I>dmax</I> setting
is how far any atom can move in a single iteration (timestep). Thus a
value of 0.1 in real <A HREF = "units.html">units</A> means no atom will move
further than 0.1 Angstroms in a single outer iteration. This prevents
highly overlapped atoms from being moved long distances (e.g. through
another atom) due to large forces.
