How do I make hython only use an Engine license?

To ensure only an Engine license is checked when running hython commands:

hython --check-licenses="Houdini-Engine" --skip-licenses="Houdini-Master,Houdini-Escape"

You can also add an environment variable to houdini.env to ensure hython only uses an Engine license:

HOUDINI_HYTHON_LIC_OPT="--check-licenses=Houdini-Engine --skip-licenses=Houdini-Master,Houdini-Escape"

This will ensure that your expensive interactive licenses are not consumed by farm machines.
