Roswell - Common Lisp environment setup Utility

Synopsis

  • ros [options] [command [args...]
  • ros [options] [--]script [args...]
  • ros [options] < script.ros

Description

Roswell is a command line tool for installing and managing Common Lisp implementations, as well as a scripting infrastructure for templating, writing, executing, compiling, distributing, downloading and installing ROSWELL-SCRIPTS written in Common Lisp.

Currently roswell supports sbcl, ccl, clisp and ecl as its supported lisp implementations. For further details see ros-install(1).

Scripts installed by roswell will be system wide if appropriate directory is included in PATH.

Subcommands

In an order of utility/frequency.

install

: Install a given implementation (e.g. sbcl, ccl) or a system (e.g. alexandria) for roswell environment. See ros-install(1).

init [name[.ros]]

: Create a new ros script. .ros is optional, and is added automaticaly. See ros-init.

dump [executable|output] [script]

: Dump an image of the script for the faster startup or to make an executable. See ros-dump.

build

: Make an executable from the script. See ros-build.

run

: Initiate REPL. See ros-run.

use

: Change the default implementation used by roswell. See ros-use.

list

: List the various informations. See ros-list.

config

: Get and set the options. See ros-config.

setup

: Run the initial setup. See ros-setup.

emacs

: Launch emacs with slime. See ros-emacs.

wait

: Wait forever, used for daemonizing the script. See ros-wait.

delete

-m IMAGE --image IMAGE

: Continue from Lisp image IMAGE

-L NAME --lisp NAME

: Run the script with a lisp impl NAME[/VERSION] if present, e.g. sbcl-bin, sbcl/1.2.16. Fails otherwise.

-l FILE --load FILE

: Load a lisp file FILE while building

-S X --source-registry X

-q --quit

: quit lisp here

-r FUNC --restart FUNC

: the build image restarts from calling FUNC

-E FUNC --entry FUNC

: the build image restarts from calling (FUNC argv).

-i FORM --init FORM

: evaluate FORM after the restart.

-ip FORM --print FORM

: evaluate and princ FORM after the restart

-iw FORM --write FORM

: evaluate and write FORM after the restart

-F FORM --final FORM

-v --verbose

: be quite verbose while building

--quiet

: suppress output while building (default)
