NAME

tomo - The programming language of tomorrow.

SYNOPSIS

Run the REPL:

tomo

Run a program:

tomo program.tm [[--] args...]

Transpile tomo files to C files:

tomo -t file1.tm file2.tm...

Compile files to static object files:

tomo -c file1.tm file2.tm...

Compile file to an executable:

tomo -e file1.tm

Build a shared library:

tomo -s=mylib.1.2.3 file1.tm file2.tm...

DESCRIPTION

Tomo is a programming language that is statically typed, compiled, small, and garbage-collected, with concise syntax and built-in support for high-performance, low-overhead datastructures. It compiles by first outputting C code, which is then compiled using a C compiler of your choice.

OPTIONS

-h, --help

Print the usage and exit.

-t

Transpile the input files to C code without compiling them.

-c

Compile the input files to static objects, rather than running them.

-s=foo.1.2.3

Compile the input files to a shared object file, libfoo.1.2.3.so, and shared header file, libfoo.1.2.3.h. Also offer to install the resulting library.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

Some options can be configured by setting environment variables.

VERBOSE=0|1|2

Set the verbosity level.

CC=c-compiler

Set which C compiler is used.

O=optimization-level

Set which optimization level is passed to the C compiler. Valid values are those accepted by your compiler's -O flag.

AUTOFMT=autoformatter

The program used to autoformat generated C code. Default: indent -kr -l100 -nbbo -nut -sob
