Release Notes

• Dynamic Output Directory Path: The output directory path is now dynamically set based on the operating system. This ensures compatibility across different environments (Windows and Unix-like systems).
• Batch Query Handling: Improved handling of batch queries when the total result count exceeds 500, adhering to the esearch API's limitations.
• Directory Creation: Added checks and automatic creation of output directories (output_json_directory and output_table_directory) if they do not exist, ensuring smooth execution without manual directory setup.
• Response Parsing: Enhanced the parsing of server responses to handle edge cases and ensure robust data extraction.
