The Unix/Linux command line help for rb is as follows:
$ rb-mpi --help
Usage: rb [OPTIONS]
rb [OPTIONS] <file1> [<file2> ...]
Bayesian phylogenetic inference using probabilistic graphical models and an interpreted language
Options:
-h [ --help ] Show information on flags.
-v [ --version ] Show version and exit.
-b [ --batch ] Run in batch mode.
-j [ --jupyter ] Run in jupyter mode.
--args arg Command line arguments to initialize RevBayes
variables.
--cmd arg Script and command line arguments to initialize
RevBayes variables.
--file arg File(s) to source.
--setOption arg Set an option key=value.
See http://revbayes.github.io for more information.
As far as I can tell this is the limit of the documentation for these flags, anywhere. It took me quite some time to work out that --args simply fills a vector called args (which is not mentioned in https://revbayes.github.io/documentation/) and that if you do that then rb [OPTIONS] <file1> [<file2> ...] does not actually work (because everything after --args is used to fill args) and you need to specify --file instead. I do not need it right now, but I also have no idea how to approach using --cmd. It seems like these could use some elaboration.
Apologies if there is actually a tutorial for these somewhere, but I certainly could not find it.
