💅 COBCRUN(1) — the cobcrun glow-up guide 🦋

okay so bestie, welcome to cobcrun, from the GnuCOBOL fam, version 3.2.0 — this is the page for COBCRUN(1) in the User Commands girlies and honestly she's serving module loader realness ✨

✨ NAME ✨

cobcrun — the manual page for cobcrun 3.2.0. that's it, that's the name, she's literally the manual page about herself, main character energy fr 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

cobcrun [options] PROGRAM [parameter ...]
cobcrun options

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

she's a GnuCOBOL module loader, no cap. that's the whole vibe check 💖

⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

here's where it gets GOOD, bestie — every single flag, all her little accessories 👑

  • -h, --help — shows you this help text and dips out. the classic "who dis" button 🫶
  • -V, --version — spills the version tea for cobcrun plus the runtime, then exits. double the info, double the slay ✨
  • -dumpversion — only the runtime version, then bye. no extras, just vibes 💀
  • -i, --info — shows runtime info (build/environment). it's giving backstage pass 🎟️
  • -v, --verbose — extended output when you're sitting with --info. more words, more lore 🦋
  • -c <file>, --config=<file> — sets the runtime configuration from <file>. feed her the config, she eats 🍓
  • -r, --runtime-config — displays the current runtime configuration — the value and the origin for all settings. receipts included, iconic 👑
  • -M <module>, --module=<module> — sets the entry point module name and/or the load path. specifically: -M module prepends any directory to the dynamic link loader library search path, and any basename to the module preload list (COB_LIBRARY_PATH and/or COB_PRELOAD). lowkey the most extra option and I love her for it 🌈
