acstools.calacs.calacs(input_file, exec_path=None, time_stamps=False, temp_files=False, verbose=False, debug=False, quiet=False, single_core=False, exe_args=None)

Run the calacs.e executable as from the shell.

By default this will run the calacs given by ‘calacs.e’.

Parameters:
  • input_file (str) – Name of input file.

  • exec_path (str, optional) – The complete path to a calacs executable.
