csi — The CHICKEN Scheme interpreter
SYNOPSIS
csi [OPTION ...] [FILENAME ...]
DESCRIPTION
csi is an interpreter for the programming language Scheme supporting most of the features as described in the Revisedˆ5 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme. csi is implemented as a program compiled with the CHICKEN compiler.
FILENAME is a Scheme source file name with optional extension. OPTION may be one of the following:
−h, −help
Display usage and exit.
−version
Display version and exit.
−release
Print release number and exit.
−i, −case-insensitive
Enable case-insensitive reading.
−e EXPRESSION, −eval EXPRESSION
Evaluate the given expression.
−p EXPRESSION, −print EXPRESSION
Evaluate and print the result(s) of the given expression.
−P EXPRESSION, −pretty-print EXPRESSION
Evaluate and print result(s) prettily.
−D SYMBOL, −feature SYMBOL
Register feature identifier.
−no-feature SYMBOL
Disable built-in feature identifier.
−q, −quiet
Do not print banner.
−n, −no-init
Do not load initialization file. ‘.csirc’
−b, −batch
Terminate after command-line processing.
−w, −no-warnings
Disable all warnings.
−K STYLE, −keyword-style STYLE
Enable alternative keyword-syntax (
prefix, suffix or none )
−no-parentheses-synonyms
Disable list delimiter synonyms.
−no-symbol-escape
Disables support for escaped symbols.
−r5rs-syntax
Disable the CHICKEN extensions to R5RS syntax.
−s PATHNAME, −script PATHNAME
Use interpreter for shell scripts.
−ss PATHNAME
Run a script with a ‘main’ procedure
−sx PATHNAME
Same as −s, but print each expression as it is evaluated.
−setup-mode
Prefer the current directory when locating extensions.
−R NAME, −require-extension NAME
Import extension before executing code.
−I PATHNAME, −include-path PATHNAME
Add PATHNAME to the include path.
−−
Ignore all following options.
ENVIRONMENT
The following environment variables change the behaviour of csi:
CSI_OPTIONS
When set to a string of command-line options, then the options are passed implicitly to every direct or indirect invocation of csi. Note that runtime options of the form ‘-:〈OPTIONS〉’ cannot be passed using this method.
CHICKEN_INCLUDE_PATH
Contains one or more pathnames where the interpreter should also look for include files, separated by ‘;’ characters.
FILES
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/chicken/csirc
Scheme file loaded on startup. ( $XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaults to $HOME/.config )
$HOME/.csirc
Scheme file loaded on startup if the previous one doesnât exists.
EXIT STATUS
The csi utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
