Cool stuff -- I'm glad you are creating tools for all of us to use.  ;D

I’m calling it MesaScript, because it’s almost a mini programming language, albeit one you probably already know, the MESA inlist language (if you can call what you put in an inlist a “language”).

Now I can just write one script that could generate hundreds of inlists, taking care of the details for me.

There’s an example in there as well as a detailed README that should get you going. I’ve even made a tool that will convert an existing inlist to a MesaScript file so you can get working on existing projects fast.
