visualize parsing

Render parsing contours with the built-in visualization defaults.

This wrapper is intentionally minimal. In the common case, run it with no arguments or only set the input and output paths.

It uses built-in defaults for variable mapping and contour styling. When you need deeper plotting control, use a dedicated plotting script instead of this wrapper.

# use default parsing file and defaults

# explicit input/output paths
lst-tools visualize parsing \
    --input growth_rate_with_nfact_amps.dat \
    --out alpi_contours_parsing

Common Options

Option Meaning
--input, -i Select the parsing Tecplot input file
--out, -o Select the output directory

The command renders the standard LST alpha contour PNGs for every k-slice into the selected output directory.
