Useful snippet

To run an Evolver script from Python and write outputs to a text file:

import os
evolver_path = "C:/Portable/Evolver/Evolver.exe"
filepath = "script.fe"
os.system(f"{evolver_path} -q -p8 \"{filepath}\" > evolver_log.txt")

Disclaimer

The code in this repository was written for the purpose of my own work with Evolver and has not been tested further. Therefore, it is provided as is, without any guarantees and could be greatly improved by someone who has experience with YAML. The keywords were simply copy-pasted from the PDF documentation and adjusted along the way. Comments and pull requests are welcome.
