This can be helpful for communicating that the synthesized version of the dataset is not the real one.

Both the CLI and API are updated. For the API use:

mf.write_synthetic(file_prefix="SYN_", column_prefix="synthetic_")

This will add "SYN_" before the original filename, while the columns are prepended with "synthetic_".

metasyn synthesize my_gmf_file.json --file-prefix "SYN_" --column-prefix "synthetic_"

Does the same for the command line interface.

the dataset is not the real one.
