NAME

sprog - options for invoking Sprog from the command line

SYNOPSIS

   sprog [options] [<filename.sprog>] [<filenames>]

Options:

   -?               detailed help about options
   --run     (-r)   start the machine running
   --nogui   (-n)   run in text mode without graphical user interface
   --quit    (-q)   quit when machine stops
   --debug   (-d)   enable debugging modes (for developers)
   --version (-v)   print version number and exit

Usually you would simply invoke "sprog" with no arguments or possibly just the filename of a <.sprog> file.

OPTIONS

Most options can be used in the long form shown below (with two leading dashes) or the short form shown in the synopsis above (one leading dash).

--run
If the name of a Sprog machine file is provided, this option tells Sprog to run the machine after loading it from the file. If no filename was provided, this option has no effect.
--nogui
If this option is specified, Sprog will run without a graphical user interface (possibly useful for 'cron' jobs etc).

If you select 'nogui' mode, you must also specify the name of a ".sprog" file to load. Enabling this mode will implicitly enable both "--run" and "--quit", so the machine will start running as soon as it is loaded and Sprog will exit as soon as the machine is finished.

--quit
Causes Sprog to exit when the machine stops running. It probably only makes sense to use this option with "--run" but you can specify it on it's own. If no filename was provided, this option has no effect.
--debug
Enables Sprog's debug logging. This is a tool for Sprog developers. When this option is enabled, various debug messages will be written to the file sprog.dbg in the current directory.
--version
If this option is specified, Sprog will print its version number to STDOUT and then exit.
