CTML to YAML conversion
***********************

.. py:module:: cantera.ctml2yaml
.. py:currentmodule:: cantera.ctml2yaml

The script ``ctml2yaml.py`` will convert files from the legacy CTML format to YAML input
format. The documentation below describes the classes and functions in the script. Each
function/method is annotated with the Python types that the function accepts.

Most users will access the functionality of this module via the command line with the
``ctml2yaml`` entry-point script. For programmatic access, the `main` and/or `convert`
functions should be used. `main` should be used when command line arguments must be
processed, while `convert` takes an input filename or a string containing the CTML file
to be converted, and optionally the name of the output file.
