HAREC(1)

📦 version 0.26.0, in debian trixie, ubuntu questing, ubuntu resolute, ubuntu stonking

💖 HAREC(1) — like, the Hare compiler, bestie 💖

okay so real quick: this is harec, and she lives in section 1 of the General Commands Manual, which is the section for, y'know, actual commands you run in your terminal. she's the Hare compiler for POSIX-compatible systems ✨ and she is so good at her job, no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

harec [-h] [-a arch] [-D constant] [-M path] [-m symbol] [-N namespace]
      [-o output] [-T] [-t typedefs] [-v] input.ha

like. look at her. that's the whole vibe right there 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So basically you hand her an input.ha file and she does her little compiler thing. The options are as follows, and I'm gonna walk you through every single one because we don't gatekeep here 💅

  • -h — prints the help message and then dips. exits immediately, main character energy, doesn't overstay 👑
  • -a arch — sets the target architecture. you're telling her which lil CPU she's building for, fr fr.
  • -D constant — defines a constant. boom. defined. that's it. that's the whole thing 🎀
  • -M path — sets the module path prefix, and it gets stripped from error messages. so like, the errors show up looking cute and short instead of with a whole essay of path in front of them. we love a tidy queen ✨
  • -m symbol — sets the symbol of the hosted main function. yeah. that one. the big one.
  • -N namespace — overrides the namespace for the module. sometimes you just gotta rebrand, iykyk 💜
  • -o output — sets the output file name. name your baby. go wild. 🍼
  • -T — emit tests. she's putting the tests IN. test girl summer 🔥
  • -t typedefs — emits typedefs to a file. very demure, very mindful, very typedef-y 🌸
  • -v — print version and exit. just wants you to know who she is. iconic behavior, honestly 💅
lowkey a tip from me to you: if you're ever lost, just hit -h. she'll tell you everything. she's not mysterious. she's an open book. 🦋

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

nope! nothing here! no cross-references, no friends, just her and her flags. a solo act. a one-woman show. 🌈
