Usage: red [command] [options] [file]

[file]: any Red or Red/System source file.

* The -c, -r and -u options are mutually exclusive.

[options]:

-c, --compile : Generate an executable in the working

folder, using libRedRT. (development mode)

-d, --debug, --debug-stabs : Compile source file in debug mode. STABS

is supported for Linux targets.

-dlib, --dynamic-lib : Generate a shared library from the source

file.

-e, --encap : Compile in encap mode, so code is interpreted

at runtime. Avoids compiler issues. Required

for some dynamic code.

-h, --help : Output this help text.

-o <file>, --output <file> : Specify a non-default [path/][name] for

the generated binary file.

-r, --release : Compile in release mode, linking everything

together (default: development mode).

-s, --show-expanded : Output result of Red source code expansion by

the preprocessor.

-t <ID>, --target <ID> : Cross-compile to a different platform

target than the current one (see targets

table below).

-u, --update-libRedRT : Rebuild libRedRT and compile the input script

(only for Red scripts with R/S code).

-v <level>, --verbose <level> : Set compilation verbosity level, 1-3 for

Red, 4-11 for Red/System.

-V, --version : Output Red's executable version in x.y.z

format.

--config [...] : Provides compilation settings as a block

of `name: value` pairs.

--no-compress : Omit Redbin format compression.

--no-runtime : Do not include runtime during Red/System

source compilation.

--no-view : Do not include VIEW module in the CLI console

and the libRedRT.

--view <engine> : Select the VIEW engine (native, terminal, GTK, test)

--red-only : Stop just after Red-level compilation.

Use higher verbose level to see compiler

output. (internal debugging purpose)

--show-func-map : Output an address/name map of Red/System

functions, for debugging purposes.

[command]:

build libRed [stdcall] : Builds libRed library and unpacks the

libRed/ folder locally.

clear [<path>] : Delete all temporary files from current

or target <path> folder.
