[EnergyPlus_Support] Scripts

Hi everybody,
   
  I'm trying to find a way to do lots of runs in E+ automatically. I need to do a single parametric sensitivity analysis and therefore I need to vary one parameter at a time, save the file, run it and check the results. 
   
  I had a look at the macros but I'm not sure if they are apropriate as it seems to me that each file needs to be specified anyway and saves should be done manually. I thought I could use the ##def to define all my variables in some files and then use the ##if and/or ##include to substitute each one in the "basic" .idf file but I couldn't find a way to save the file each time before running so that I have a collection of input files - each of them with only one different variable.
   
  I've opened a macro example and saw that a macro comand should be included inside the .idf file so that it calls the correspondent .imf file. I think I cannot use this because I want to use the same .idf file many times, just changing one of the variables each time and by doing this I'd need to save the files manually if I decide to use a macro command.
   
  I wanted to check with you but it seems to me that I can only do a parametric sensitivity analysis if I write a script to manipulate .idf text files, am I right? In this case has anybody faced sth similar in the past and can give me some tips about which tool would be the most apropriate one?
   
  Thanks in advance for the help.
   
  Best regards,
   
  Clarice
   
  P.S. Thanks a lot for the replies about Linux Windows conversion, I'll check the cluster on Monday and see what is installed there.
