Overall looks good! I have two comments below, and there is a documentation build error that needs fixing. We should merge this branch before #80, as I think you will be able to use this method to implement the change in from_hoomd_gsd?

This is one area of LAMMPS that is slightly grey. You may want to have a triclinic box that has zero tilt factors, say in order to allow the box to deform later.
Should we add a default argument like check_orthorhombic=True or force_triclinic=False that will cause this check to occur? And otherwise, accept the tilts as they come from the matrix?

Good point! I've implemented a force_triclinic argument to cover this scenario!

I've made these tweaks and fixed the documentation! This should go in before #80, and then I'll made the edits there! |

Thanks! One small comment, then this can be merged.
Adds a method to create a
lammpio.Boxobject from a box matrix.
