 FUNCTION:
     spd_run_py_validation
     
 PURPOSE:
     Runs a Python script and checks that tplot variables match those currently loaded in IDL
     
 INPUT:
     py_script: Python script, specified as a string or array of strings
     vars: variables to check, specified as a string or array of strings
 
 KEYWORDS:
     tolerance: maximum percent difference between the data and time values (default: 1e-3)
     py_exe_dir: location of the python executable on your machine
     tmp_dir: local directory where the Python scripts are stored prior to running
     points_to_check: number of data points to check
     
 NOTES:
     - IDL variables must already be loaded
     - This routine only checks a few data points throughout the variables (set by the 'tolerance' keyword)
