- marlais [-d] [-c] [-n] [init-file ...]
-
- marlais is the Marlais Dylan(TM) interpreter. It directly evaluates
- programs written in a variant of Apple Computer's Dylan programming
- language. Marlais supports both the infix syntax defined in the Dylan
- Interim Reference Manual[1], and the prefix syntax of the Dylan book[2].
-
- Each of the specified init-files must contain prefix Dylan code to be
- evaluated before the interpreter begins its read-eval-print loop.
- If errors occur during load of the init-files, the interpreter will
- terminate its execution.
-
- Switches:
-
- -c Use prefix (classic) Dylan syntax.
-
- -d Generate parser debug output.
-
- -e Echo equivalent prefix expression.
-
- This flag causes the interpreter to echo the prefix
- Dylan expression equivalent to any infix expression
- it encounters in its read-eval-print loop.
-
- -n Suppress loading the system default Dylan init file.
