Sorry for the cut-paste problem. The correct TCL script is as follows:

psfgen <<ENDMOL
topology top_martini.inp

segment POPA {
auto angles
pdb popc_b1.pdb
first none
last none
}
segment POPB {
auto angles
pdb popc_b2.pdb
first none
last none
}

segment WAT1 {
auto none
pdb water_b1.pdb
first none
last none
}

segment WAT2 {
auto none
pdb water_b2.pdb
first none
last none
}

coordpdb popc_b1.pdb POPA
coordpdb popc_b2.pdb POPB
coordpdb water_b1.pdb WAT1
coordpdb water_b2.pdb WAT2

writepsf start-cg.psf
writepdb start-cg.pdb
