Why not use E+ directly and side-step OpenStudio?
Just make sure the following system variables are setup in bash/zsh
Ex.
export ENERGYPLUS_DIR=~/energyplus/EnergyPlus-8-2-0
export ENERGYPLUS_WEATHER=$ENERGYPLUS_DIR/WeatherData
export PATH=$PATH:$ENERGYPLUS_DIR
You can then just use:
runenergyplus XXX.idf WEATHERFILE
As of E+ v8 and onwards, the bin directory is no longer used. So 'PreProcess' and 'PostProcess' is the standard install.
