Hi Qikai,
After having a quick look at the code you sent, it seems to me that NAMD
is just skipping (as it should) the line that contains the label
indicating that after that line bonds are listed in the psf file
(something like "71702 !NBOND: bonds", followed by the list of bonds).
Then it continues reading the actual info. Have a look at the format of a
psf file in the appendix of the NAMD tutorial
http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Training/Tutorials/namd/namd-tutorial-unix-html/index.html
