Installation

To install celmo in your standar python directorie run the command:

sudo pip install /path/to/celmo/source

Examples

command line

Assuming that the data is in /path/to/data

1. Create a new project directory mkdir /path/to/root/project
2. Create a new parameter file some_params.par (see below)
3. Run celmo nohup celmo_cmd.py some_params.par > output.log &
