SYNOPSIS

       hfst-xfst [OPTIONS...]

DESCRIPTION

       Compile XFST scripts or execute XFST commands interactively

   Common options:
       -h, --help
              Print help message

       -V, --version
              Print version info

       -v, --verbose
              Print verbosely while processing

       -q, --quiet
              Only print fatal erros and requested output

       -s, --silent
              Alias of --quiet

   Xfst-specific options:
       -e, --execute=CMD
              Execute command CMD on startup

       -f, --format=FMT
              Write result using FMT as backend format

       -F, --scriptfile=FILE
              Read commands from FILE, and quit

       -l, --startupfile=FILE
              Read commands from FILE on startup

       -p, --pipe-mode[=STREAM] Control input and output streams

       -r, --no-readline
              Do not use readline library for input

       -w, --print-weight
              Print weights for each operation

       Option  --execute  can  be  invoked  many  times.  If FMT is not given, OpenFst's tropical
       format will  be  used.   The  possible  values  for  FMT  are  {  foma,  openfst-tropical,
       openfst-log,  sfst }.  Readline library, if enabled when configuring, is used for input by
       default.  Input files are always treated as UTF-8.

       STREAM can be { input, output, both }. If not given, defaults to {both}.  If input file is
       not  specified  with  -F,  input  is read interactively line by line from the user. If you
       redirect input from a file,  use  --pipe-mode=input.   --pipe-mode=output  is  ignored  on
       non-windows platforms.
