We still have some work to do with the external functions, but the Python scripts are now updated to Python 3 and working on Windows. See https://github.com/SolarTherm/SolarTherm/wiki/Running-SolarTherm-on-Windows-%28MSYS2%29.

This is not as easy as it sounds. There is no setting in `omc` to force temporary files to be saved in a particular locations. They will always just be...

A solution for this will be to use the unionfs-fuse tool. A simple test as follows: unionfs -o cow,debug_file=/tmp/testlog -o relaxed_permissions \ /tmp/test1=RW:/tmp/test2=RO /tmp/testm where `/tmp/test1` is a clean, empty...
