 RAS Commander is a Python library for automating HEC-RAS operations, providing a set of tools to interact with HEC-RAS project files, execute simulations, and manage project data. This library is an evolution of the RASCommander 1.0 Python Notebook Application previously released under the [HEC-Commander tools repository](https://github.com/billk-FM/HEC-Commander).

+"""
+RasCmdr - Execution operations for running HEC-RAS simulations
+
+This module is part of the ras-commander library and uses a centralized logging configuration.
+
+Logging Configuration:
+- The logging is set up in the logging_config.py file.
+- A @log_call decorator is available to automatically log function calls.
+- Log levels: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL
+- Logs are written to both console and a rotating file handler.
+- The default log file is 'ras_commander.log' in the 'logs' directory.
+- The default log level is INFO.
+
+To use logging in this module:
+1. Use the @log_call decorator for automatic function call logging.
+2. For additional logging, use logger.[level]() calls (e.g., logger.info(), logger.debug()).
+
+Example:
+    @log_call
+    def my_function():
+        
+        logger.debug("Additional debug information")
+        # Function logic here

+#    - Use Powershell to execute HEC-RAS command
+#    - Hide RAS window and all child windows
+#    - Note: This mode may prevent execution if the plan has a popup
+#    - Intended for background runs or popup-free scenarios
+#    - Limit to non-commercial use
+#
+# 2. Implement compute_plan_remote:
+#    - Execute compute_plan on a remote machine via psexec
+#    - Use keyring package for secure credential storage
+#    - Implement psexec command for remote HEC-RAS execution
+#    - Create remote_worker objects to store machine details:

+        Execute HEC-RAS plans in test mode. This is a re-creation of the HEC-RAS command line -test flag, 
+        which does not work in recent versions of HEC-RAS.
+        
+        As a special-purpose function that emulates the original -test flag, it operates differently than the 
+        other two compute_ functions. Per the original HEC-RAS test flag, it creates a separate test folder,
+        copies the project there, and executes the specified plans in sequential order.
+        
+        For most purposes, just copying a the project folder, initing that new folder, then running each plan 
+        with compute_plan is a simpler and more flexible approach.  This is shown in the examples provided
+        in the ras-commander library.
+
+        Args:
+            plan_number (str, list[str], optional): Plan number or list of plan numbers to execute. 
+                If None, all plans will be executed. Default is None.
+            dest_folder_suffix (str, optional): Suffix to append to the test folder name to create dest_folder. 
+                Defaults to "[Test]".
+                dest_folder is always created in the project folder's parent directory.
+            clear_geompre (bool, optional): Whether to clear geometry preprocessor files.
+                Defaults to False.
+            num_cores (int, optional): Maximum number of cores to use for each plan.
+                If None, the current setting is not changed. Default is None.
+            ras_object (RasPrj, optional): Specific RAS object to use. If None, uses the global ras instance.
+            overwrite_dest (bool, optional): If True, overwrite the destination folder if it exists. Defaults to False.
+
+        Returns:
+            Dict[str, bool]: Dictionary of plan numbers and their execution success status.
+
+        Example:
+            Run all plans: RasCommander.compute_test_mode()
+            Run a specific plan: RasCommander.compute_test_mode(plan_number="01")
+            Run multiple plans: RasCommander.compute_test_mode(plan_number=["01", "03", "05"])
+            Run plans with a custom folder suffix: RasCommander.compute_test_mode(dest_folder_suffix="[TestRun]")
+            Run plans and clear geometry preprocessor files: RasCommander.compute_test_mode(clear_geompre=True)
+            Run plans with a specific number of cores: RasCommander.compute_test_mode(num_cores=4)
+            
+        Notes:
+            - This function executes plans in a separate folder for isolated testing.
+            - If plan_number is not provided, all plans in the project will be executed.
+            - The function does not change the geometry preprocessor and IB tables settings.  
+                - To force recomputing of geometry preprocessor and IB tables, use the clear_geompre=True option.
+            - Plans are executed sequentially.
+            - Because copying the project is implicit, only a dest_folder_suffix option is provided.
+            - For more flexible run management, use the compute_parallel or compute_sequential functions.
