This may be useful for the regression tests, because sometimes we want to test one given physical situation with several, smallish variations (e.g. varying the order of accuracy of a solver, varying the direction of the flow of a gas/plasma). In this case, it would be cumbersome to create one input file per test (esp. this could be hard to maintain/modify in the long term), and it would be much better to pass the one parameter that varies, through the command line.\r\n\r\nCould this be possible with the regression test interface (i.e. the `.ini` files) ?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/BoxLib-Codes/BoxLib/issues/comments/258035847","html_url":"https://github.com/BoxLib-Codes/BoxLib/issues/8#issuecomment-258035847","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/BoxLib-Codes/BoxLib/issues/8","id":258035847,"user":{"login":"RemiLehe","id":6685781,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/6685781?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe","html_url":"https://github.com/RemiLehe","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/RemiLehe/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-11-03T00:02:11Z","updated_at":"2016-11-03T00:02:11Z","body":"Thanks a lot!
