FAQ

aenv and arange seem to break when my data file has a single column, what should I do?

The sniffer gets confused, you can use the --no_sniffer option to deactivate it. Since the data format is very simple in that case, the defaults should do the right thing.

It seems that arange isn't useful unless you work with a CSV file for variable initialization, but I simply use PBS_ARRAYID/SLURM_ARRAY_TASK_ID for bookkeeping, how can I use arange?

arange also has the -t option that you can use specify a range of IDs as you would when submitting a job.

When using arange to compute which array IDs to redo it seems to return tasks that were done before, why?

Remember to pass all relevant log files to arange, not only the last one.

aenv is neat, but I don't care about job arrays, can it still be used?

Yes, it can. Simply use the --id option to specify a row in a CSV file.
