💖 COQIDE(1) — like, the manual page, but make it make sense 💖

General Commands Manual energy, bestie. Sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's talk about the icon herself.

✨ NAME ✨

coqide — the graphical interface for the Coq proof assistant 🌸

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

coqide [ options ]

That's it. That's the whole vibe. You run it, you get a window, you prove things. 💅

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

So coqide is a gtk graphical interface for the Coq proof assistant. It's the pretty face on the math. The main character. The one with the buttons. ✨

Now — if you're more of a terminal gremlin, that's valid too:

  • For command-line-oriented use of Coq, go see coqtop(1) 🫶
  • For batch-oriented use of Coq, go see coqc(1) 🫶

Different queens, different lanes. No competition. 🌈

💅 OPTIONS 💅

Okay so here's the whole list, no skips, no shortcuts, we're doing this properly. 🎀

  • -h — shows you the complete list of options that coqide accepts, then dips. Very "here's the menu, order whatever."
  • -I dir, -include dir — adds the directory dir into the include path. Like adding a new friend to the group chat. 💜
  • -R dir coqdir — recursively maps the physical dir to the logical coqdir. Recursive mapping, she's thorough, she's not missing a single subdirectory. 🔥
  • -src — adds source directories into the include path. Sourcing the sources, iconic behaviour. 🧚
  • -nois — starts with an empty state. Blank slate, fresh notebook, no baggage. Clean girl aesthetic. ✨
  • -load-ml-object f — loads the ML object file f. Yes babe, we're loading the ML. 🦋
  • -load-ml-source f — loads the ML file f. The source, the real deal, raw and unfiltered. 💖
  • -l f, -load-vernac-source f — loads the Coq file f.v (which, for the record, is literally just Load f.). Two names, one job, we love a flexible queen. 👑
  • -lv f, -load-vernac-source-verbose f — loads the Coq file f.v verbosely (Load Verbose f.). She's telling you <em>everything</em>, every single step, and honestly? Slay. 🎀
  • -load-vernac-object path — loads the Coq library at path (Require path.). Just requiring, respectfully. 🌸
  • -require-import path — loads the Coq library at path and imports it (Require Import path.). Loading is not enough, she wants it in the namespace. Bold. Love that. 💜
  • -compile f — compiles the Coq file f.v. Heads up though: this implies -batch. 🚨
  • -compile-verbose f — verbosely compiles the Coq file f.v. Also implies -batch. Same warning, same drama. 😭
  • -where — prints Coq's standard library location and then exits. Like a "where am I" but for libraries. 📍
  • -v — prints the Coq version and exits. Version check, then peace out. ✌️
  • -q — skips loading of rcfile. No rcfile, no startup config, we're going in raw. 💀
  • -init-file f — sets the rcfile to f. If -q said no rcfile, this one says your rcfile. 🌈
  • -emacs — tells Coq it's being executed under Emacs. Identity crisis? No. Just context. 🧚
  • -dump-glob f — dumps globalizations into file f (the kind of thing that's meant to be used by coqdoc(1)). 🫶
  • -impredicative-set — sets sort Set impredicative. Deep type-theory lore, iykyk. 🔥
  • -dont-load-proofs — doesn't load opaque proofs into memory. Lighter on the RAM, bestie. Your laptop will thank you. 💖
