NAME
rep - Read, Eval, Print Interpreter
SYNOPSIS
rep [ FILE ] [ --batch ] [ --interp ] [ -f, --call FUNCTION ] [
-l, --load FUNCTION ] [ -s, --scheme FILE ] [ --version ] [ --no-
rc ] [ -q, --quit ]
DESCRIPTION
rep ‘librep’ is a dialect of Lisp, designed to be used both as an
extension language for applications and as a general purpose
programming language. It was originally written to be mostly-compatible
with Emacs Lisp, but has subsequently diverged markedly. Its aim is to
combine the best features of Scheme and Common Lisp and provide an
environment that is comfortable for implementing both small and large
scale systems. It tries to be a "pragmatic" programming language.
OPTIONS
FILE load the Lisp file FILE (from the cwd if possible, implies
--batch mode)
--batch
Batch mode: process options and exit.
--interp
Interpreted mode: don’t load compile Lisp files.
-f FUNCTION --call FUNCTION
Call the Lisp function FUNCTION.
-l FILE --load FILE
Load the file of Lisp forms called FILE.
-s FILE --scheme FILE
Load the file of Scheme forms called FILE (implies --batch
mode).
--version
Print version details.
--no-rc
Don’t load rc or site-init files.
-q --quit
