+# Usage:
+#  python parallel_replicate_ICs.py EAGLE_ICs_50.hdf5 4
+#
+# Description:
+# Reads in a ICs file and replicates the particles in each dimension Plots speed up, parallel efficiency and time to solution given a "timesteps" output file generated by SWIFT.
+"""
+Usage:
+    python parallel_replicate_ICs.py IC_file.hdf5 rep_fac
+
+where IC_file.hdf5 is the ICs file that you want to replicate and rep_fac is the
+replication factor in each dimension
+
+Description:
+Reads in a ICs file and replicates the particles in each dimension by the
+replication factor given and write a new IC called IC_file_xrep_fac.hdf5.
+
+Example:
+    python parallel_replicate_ICs.py EAGLE_ICs_50.hdf5 4
+
+Running the above example will produce a tiled 50MPc box in each dimension to
+give a 200MPc box.
+
+Note: the script only replicates dark matter particles, but can be easily
+extended to support other particle types.
+
+This file is part of SWIFT.
