<P>The <I>fixedpoint</I> keyword specifies the fixed point for barostat
volume changes. By default, it is the center of the box.
Whatever point is chosen will not move during the simulation.
For example, if the lower periodic boundaries pass through (0,0,0),
and this point is provided to <I>fixedpoint</I>, then the lower
periodic boundaries will remain at (0,0,0), while the upper periodic
boundaries will move twice as far. In all cases, the particle
trajectories are unaffected by the chosen value,
except for a time-dependent constant translation of positions.
