This release is the first step in consolidation of different aspects of the AIMS software. Previous versions provided multiple Jupyter notebooks to reproduce results for manuscripts published using AIMS. These have now been moved to another repository (AIMS_manuscripts) and the different notebooks for different types of molecular processing have been consolidated into a single notebook. This version also introduces a new command line interface, which will be further supported in future releases. NOTE: This release may be somewhat unstable, largely owing to the jump from python3.7 to python3.9. It if troubles arise, consider upgrading to newer versions of AIMS where these bugs are fixed, or downgrading to python3.7. This release will be short-lived, as AIMSv0.9 is also coming out today,. This release serves primarily to save the changes made to AIMS thus far, as AIMSv0.9 represents yet another substantial departure from the previous architecture.
