Remember that the “–ID” keyword just determines the output filename (dynspec_tools#tools_sub-package).

The following text will appear on your terminal:

vilchez@lce010:/data/scratch/vilchez/Jupiter$ Dynspec-LinPol --outDir=/data/scratch/vilchez/Jupiter/ --ID=L85949 --filename=/data/scratch/vilchez/Jupiter/Dynspec_rebinned_L85949_SAP000.h5  
--RAM=1
