Dismissing interactive prompt in python
Is it possible to interact with a PSS/e prompt using a python script?
I'm trying to initialize a case for dynamics but it has a user written model that prompts the user for a filename at initialization. I can press enter when prompted during manual initialization through the PSS/e GUI, however the command line waits for user input when I attempt to do it through a python script.
Less graceful ways of bypassing this that I can think of are:
- Do the initialization in the GUI, dismiss the prompt, save the .snp and .cnv files, and use that as the start point for the python scripts.
- Make an .idv that does the STRT command with an extra carriage return, and call the .idv from python. This also means I'd have to make a distinct .idv for each .out file or rename them before starting a separate dynamics run.
