NAME

       rep - Read, Eval, Print Interpreter

SYNOPSIS

       rep  [   FILE   ]  [   --batch   ]  [  --interp  ] [  -f, --call FUNCTION  ] [  -l, --load
       FUNCTION  ] [  -s, --scheme FILE  ] [  --version  ] [  --no-rc  ] [  -q, --quit  ]

DESCRIPTION

       rep `librep' is a dialect of Lisp, designed to be used both as an extension  language  for
       applications  and  as a general purpose programming language. It was originally written to
       be mostly-compatible with Emacs Lisp, but has subsequently diverged markedly. Its  aim  is
       to  combine the best features of Scheme and Common Lisp and provide an environment that is
       comfortable for implementing both small  and  large  scale  systems.  It  tries  to  be  a
       "pragmatic" programming language.

       -f FUNCTION --call FUNCTION
              Call the Lisp function FUNCTION.

       -l FILE --load FILE
              Load the file of Lisp forms called FILE.

       -s FILE --scheme FILE
              Load the file of Scheme forms called FILE (implies --batch mode).

       --version
              Print version details.

       --no-rc
              Don't load rc or site-init files.

       -q --quit
              Terminate the interpreter process.
