# 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`
