Example

using Korg, PyPlot
lines = read_linelist("linelist.vald", format="vald")
atm = read_model_atmosphere("s6000_g+1.0_m0.5_t05_st_z+0.00_a+0.00_c+0.00_n+0.00_o+0.00_r+0.00_s+0.00.mod")
sol = synthesize(atm, lines, format_A_X(0), 5000, 5030);

figure(figsize=(12, 4))
plot(sol.wavelengths, sol.flux, "k-")
xlabel(L"$\lambda$ [Å]")
ylabel(L"$F_\lambda/R_\mathrm{star}^2$ [erg s$^{-1}$ cm$^{-5}$]");

You can also call Korg from python
