(chapter :title "Skribilo Compiler"
:ident "compiler"
(index "skribilo" :note "compiler")
(p [This chapter introduces the Skribilo compiler, i.e., the tool that
turns input documents into various output formats.])
;; Synopsis
(section :title "Synopsis" :number #f
(p (compiler-command "skribilo" "options" "input")))
;; Description
(section :title "Description" :number #f
(p [The ,(tt [skribilo]) compiler turns Skribilo input documents into
one of a variety of output formats, including HTML, LaTeX and Lout. The
input format is specified using the ,(tt [--reader]) command-line
option, while the output format is specified using the ,(tt [--target])
option. These options and others are described below.]))
;; Suffixes
(section :title "Suffixes" :number #f
(p [A number of file name extensions are used by convention:
,(description
(item :key (tt ".skb") [a Skribilo or Skribe source file.])
(item :key (tt ".html") [an HTML target file.])
(item :key (tt ".lout") [a Lout target file.])
(item :key (tt ".tex") [a TeX, LaTeX or ConTeXt target file.])
(item :key (tt ".sui") [a Skribe URL index file.]))]))
;; Options
(section :title "Options" :number #f
(mark "skribilo compiler options")
(p [The options supported by the ,(tt [skribilo]) compiler are listed
below. They follow the usual GNU convention, i.e., each option can have
both a short name (a hyphen followed by a single character) and a long
name (two hyphens followed by a name).])
(index "compatibility" :note "Skribe compatibility mode")
(p (compiler-options '(skribilo)
`(#\h ,[Produce a help message.])
`(#\V ,[Show program version.])
`(#\R "reader" ,[Use ,(tt "reader") to read the input file,
i.e., as the format of the input file. Currently, two formats are
supported: ,(tt [skribe]), which corresponds to the Skribe syntax (see
,(numref :text [Chapter] :ident "syntax")), or ,(tt [outline]), which
corresponds to plain text (markup-less) following the structuring
conventions of Emacs' Outline mode (see ,(numref :text [Section] :ident
"outline-syntax")).])
`(#\t "engine" ,[Use ,(tt "engine") as the engine, i.e., as
the output format. For details on engines and for a list of supported
engines, see ,(numref :text [Chapter] :ident "engines").])
`(#\c "custom=value" ,[Set engine
custom ,(tt [custom]) to ,(tt [value]), a constant. See Section ,(ref
:subsection "Engine Customs") for more information on customs.])
`("compat" "compat" ,[Use ,(tt "compat") as the compatibility
mode. This defaults to ,(tt [skribilo]). Specifying ,(tt [skribe])
enables the ,(ref :text [Skribe] :url *skribe-url*) compatibility mode,
making it possible to compile most Skribe documents. Technically, the
,(tt [skribe]) compatibility mode populates the name space of Skribilo
documents with bindings available to Skribe documents and that are not
available by default to Skribilo documents,(footnote [Skribe uses a
single name space for all the code of packages, documents, in addition
to bindings provided by the underlying Scheme implementation.]) (e.g.,
,(srfi-ref 1) functions, Bigloo's hash table API, etc.); for Skribe
functions not available in Skribilo, such as ,(tt [skribe-load]), a
compatible implementation is provided.])
`(#\o "file" ,[Write output to ,(tt [file]).])
`(#\I "dir" ,[Prepend ,(tt [dir]) to the document include path.])
`(#\B "dir" ,[Prepend ,(tt [dir]) to the bibliography include path.])
`(#\S "dir" ,[Prepend ,(tt [dir]) to the source include path.])
`(#\P "dir" ,[Prepend ,(tt [dir]) to the image include path.])
`(#\U "dir" ,[Prepend ,(tt [dir]) to the Skribe URL Index (SUI)
search path (see ,(numref :text [Section] :ident "sui") for details).])
`(#\b "base" ,[Strip ,(tt [base]) (an arbitrary string,
typically an URL) from all hyperlinks when producing ,(ref :mark
"html-engine" :text [HTML files]).])
`(#\e "expr" ,[Prepend ,(tt [expr]) to the list of expressions
to be evaluated before the input document is processed. ,(tt [expr]) is
evaluated in the document's environment/module; thus, this option can be
used to pass parameters to the document, e.g., with ,(tt [-e '(define
chbouib-enabled? "yes")']).])
`(#\p "file" ,[Pre-load ,(tt [file]) before processing the input
document. ,(tt [file]) is evaluated in the document's name space and
should be a regular Scheme file, i.e., it cannot use the ,(ref :text
[Skribe syntax] :ident "syntax").])
`(#\v "level" ,[Be verbose, unless ,(tt [level]) is ,(tt [0]).])
`(#\w "level" ,[Issue warnings, unless ,(tt [level]) is ,(tt [0]).])
`(#\g "arg" ,[Issue debugging output, unless ,(tt [arg]) is ,(tt
[0]). If ,(tt [arg]) is not a number, it is interpreted as a symbol to
be watched.])
`("no-color" ,[By default, debugging output is colored on
capable terminals such as ,(tt [xterm]) or the Linux console (check your
,(tt [TERM]) environment variable). This option turns coloring off.]))))
;; Environment variables
(section :title "Environment Variables" :number #f
(p [The ,(tt [skribilo]) command does not pay attention to any
specific environment variable. In particular, it does not honor the
,(tt [SKRIBEPATH]) variable that is recognized by Skribe. Instead, you
should use the ,(tt [-I]) command-line option to specify the load path
of ,(emph [documents]) (see ,(markup-ref "include")), or, alternatively,
change the value of the ,(tt [GUILE_LOAD_PATH]) variable, which affects
Guile's own module load path.])))
;;; Local Variables:
;;; ispell-local-dictionary: "american"
