| ulalume3@3 | 21 | # Use |
| ulalume3@3 | 22 | To run the script you need to: |
| ulalume3@3 | 23 | |
| Volker@46 | 24 | 1. Read the information in the script header. |
| Volker@46 | 25 | |
| ulalume3@3 | 26 | 1. Create a file describing your system settings and parameters. You can find an example file in the "system_settings" |
| ulalume3@3 | 27 | folder. Give a descriptive name and save it in the "system_settings" folder. |
| ulalume3@3 | 28 | |
| Volker@46 | 29 | 2. Edit the "GHK_0.9.8e5_Py3.7.py" or the current script file with an ASCII editor and set the variable InputFile below line 281 to the filename you chose in step 1. |
| ulalume3@3 | 30 | |
| Volker@46 | 31 | 3. Run the script "GHK_0.9.8e5_Py3.7.py" (or the current version). |
| ulalume3@3 | 32 | |
| Volker@46 | 33 | Note: _0.9.8e5 in the script filename is the script version and _Py3.7 indicates that it is tested with Python 3.7. |
