NAME

       theme-d-gnome-link - the Theme-D-Gnome linker

SYNOPSIS

       theme-d-gnome-link [ OPTION ] ...  FILE

DESCRIPTION

       Link  the  Theme-D  pseudocode file FILE and Theme-D libraries it uses into Guile bytecode
       and ensure that the Guile-Gnome libraries are loaded during program startup.  The  default
       bytecode  filename is obtained by appending .go to the basename of FILE.  Command theme-d-
       gnome-link creates an intermediate file either in Guile Tree-IL or Scheme and  uses  Guile
       to  compile it into bytecode. The default suffix of the intermediate file is either .tree-
       il or .scm.

       By default, the output file and the intermediate file are placed into the directory  where
       the command theme-d-gnome-link is invoked.

OPTIONS

       -o, --output=OUTPUTFILE
              Specify the compilation output file.

       -m, --module-path=PATH
              Specify  the  search  path  for  Theme-D  modules.  The  path  should  be a list of
              directories separated with :'s. You can prefix the list with a colon  in  order  to
              include the default Theme-D library path in the search path.

       -l, --message-level=LEVEL
              Specify  the  message  level of the compiler. The level has to be an integer number
              from 0 to 3. Value 0 means no output and value 3 the most verbose output.

       -n, --intermediate-file=INTFILE
              Specify the intermediate filename.

       -i, --intermediate-language=LANGUAGE
              Specify the intermediate language. Value LANGUAGE has to be either  tree-il,  tree-
              il-3.0,  tree-il-2.2,  tree-il-2.0, scheme,or scheme-no-opt.  When value tree-il is
              used the Tree-IL version for which Theme-D has been  configured  is  used.   Guile-
              Gnome and Theme-D-Gnome libraries cannot be used with Racket.

       -x MODULE
              Link  (load)  module  MODULE into the target program. The syntax of MODULE is (sym1
              ... symn) in double quotes.

       --no-final-compilation
              Do not compile the intermediate file with guild compile.

       --no-strip
              Do not strip away unused code.

       --no-factorization
              Do not factorize the type expressions out of procedure implementations.

       --no-weak-assertions
              Do not check ordinary assertions. Strong assertions are always checked.

       --backtrace
              Print backtrace on compilation error.

       --pretty-print
              Pretty print the pseudocode output.

       --no-verbose-errors
              Less information in the error messages.

       --keep-intermediate
              Keep the intermediate Tree-IL or Scheme file. By default the intermediate  file  is
              deleted.

       --link-to-cache
              Link the target bytecode file into the guile cache.

       --runtime-pretty-backtrace
              Generate code to support runtime pretty printed backtraces.

       --no-unlinked-procedure-names
              Do not generate code for reporting unlinked procedure names.

TARGET PLATFORMS

       Theme-D  programs  can  be built for Guile or Racket. The following intermediate languages
       are available:

       tree-il
              Guile Tree-IL. Use the Guile version from Theme-D configuration.

       tree-il-3.0
              Guile 3.0 Tree-IL. This is currently identical to Guile 2.2 Tree-IL.

       tree-il-2.2
              Guile 2.2 Tree-IL.

       tree-il-2.0
              Guile 2.0 Tree-IL.

       scheme Guile Scheme.

       scheme-no-opt
              Guile Scheme without optimizations.

       racket Racket Scheme.

ENVIRONMENT

       THEME_D_CONFIG_FILE
              If this variable is defined its value is used as  the  Theme-D  configuration  file
              instead of the default configuration file.

FILES

       /etc/theme-d-config
              The Theme-D configuration file.

       ~/.theme-d-config
              The  Theme-D  configuration  file. This file should be normally present only if you
              use Theme-D in local mode.
