you have multiple options:
- transform your trajectory into a supercell (i.e. make periodic
copies until you can wrap this without disrupting the structure into
an orthorhombic cell).
- modify the VMD source code, so that the limitation to orthorhombic
cells is lifted
- find a tool, that can handle computing g(r)s for non-orthogonal cells
- program such a tool for yourself, which may be easier than modifying VMD
axel.
