Print log with errors

[Rensvandeschoot]

If I run Makita and the simulations end with an error without finalizing the pipeline, I would like to see a log with the error(s) printed in the parent folder. Currently, the CLI simply stops and closes, and you have to re-run the simulation to find out what error caused the interruption.

We might beable to redirect the output of the script to a log file. At least on unix and darwin, not sure for windows.

I'm not in favor of that. It doesn't sound like a good practice for CLI interfaces.

This happens when users run the BAT file directly, isn't it? There is no problem when running the bat file from the command line. I think we should encourage users to run from the cli (documentation).

I agree that running from the CLI would be best. Another option would be to add a pause after the batch files, that could be added very easily during the batch script conversion step.
