Comment (by barry.wardell):

 Thanks. I've tested the updated version. Issues 2, 3, 5 are now fixed.
 Issue 1 is still present, but I think I can live with it.

 Issue 4 has been partially fixed by setting basedir to be the user's home
 directory. However, I think this isn't what most people will want to set
 as their basedir. Would it make sense to have a prompt for this?

 In addition, I've noticed  a couple of other issues with sim setup:

 6. After I set options for a specific machine it prompts me if I want to
 set them for another machine. If I specify 'y' for this second machine, it
 does not bring me to the machine options setup but instead prompts me to
 save the file
 7. The Y/N prompt for machine setup should accept only y or n and their
 logical variants. At the moment it seems that anything that doesn't match
 the default is interpreted as the non-default.
 8. If I run sim setup once and don't enter an email address, I am not able
 to run sim setup again. It reports the error: "Error: specified value  for
 key email does not match converted pattern .+"
