Description
Hello, I have a couple of questions about generation of python files from idl files:
- How to work with
-ooption? I typeidlc -l py idl/file.idl -o python_files, but they are still generated in the directory I'm at the moment (not inpython_files) - Is there an option to somehow include automatically
__init__.pyfile so that output directory becomes python package?
Thanks!

Research direction
The issue names idlc, idl/file.idl, the -o option, and generated Python output, but no repository files or tests. Reproduce the command from the issue first, then inspect the idlc option documentation or entry point; done means the output-directory and init.py behavior are explicitly answered.
