Uppercase options modify some of the code's default settings. They can be used when launching the code but also when generating input files. To see the list of options, do:

$ yambo -H
Tool: yambo 4.1.2 rev.14024
Description: A shiny pot of fun and happiness [C.D.Hogan] 
-J <opt>	:Job string identifier
-V <opt>	:Input file verbosity
                [opt=RL,kpt,sc,qp,io,gen,resp,all,par]
-F <opt>	:Input file
-I <opt>	:Core I/O directory
-O <opt>	:Additional I/O directory
-C <opt>	:Communications I/O directory
-D		:DataBases properties
-W <opt>	:Wall Time limitation (1d2h30m format)
-Q		:Don't launch the text editor
-M		:Switch-off MPI support (serial run)
-N		:Switch-off OpenMP support (single thread run)
[Lower case options]

These options are extremely important to master if you want to use yambo productively. The meaning of several options is clear from the help menu: try a table

$ yambo -F yambo.in_HF -x 

others deserve a closer look

Here some exercises using -J, -V, -F
