More tools will be posted at some point in the future, as many are in development. Here's what we've got so far:

- A Python module (based on numpy) for estimating free energy differences and equilibrium expectations from multiple equilibrium simulations of different thermodynamic states. Downloadable from [SimTK]. The estimator employed is similar to WHAM but is derived without histograms, and uncertainty estimates are available. This can be used to analyze alchemical free energy calculations, umbrella sampling simulations, or generalized-ensemble simulations (such as simulated or parallel tempering). The estimator is described the publication: M. R. Shirts and J. D. Chodera. Statistically optimal analysis of multiple equilibrium simulations. J. Chem. Phys, 129:124105 (2008) [1]
