Run energyplus without executing ReadVarsESO at the end of simulation (Linux, command line)

Dear All,

I would like to run energyplus with command line arguments producing the standard eplusout.eso (after specifying Output:Variable in the idf file), but I do not want to have ReadVarsESO executed automatically after energyplus completes. (In order to obtain the results file in csv format I will call ReadVarsESO explicitly after energyplus completes).

I am aware of the energyplus option ( -r, --readvars, Run ReadVarsESO after simulation). My understanding is that by default ReadVarsESO is not executed after energyplus completes, but for some reason it does run for my case.

I am running under Linux, and executing energyplus from the command line with command line arguments.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

P.S. Not having ReadVarsESO run after energyplus might seem a bit unusual, but it is related to running independent energyplus processes in parallel under linux from command line (as described in a recent post https://unmethours.com/question/38548/simulataneously-run-a-number-of-independent-energyplus-simulations-on-multiple-cores-on-linux-via-a-script/).
