RDMD(1)				Digital	Mars D			       RDMD(1)

NAME
       rdmd - Digital Mars D executable	cacher

SYNOPSIS
       rdmd  [compiler	arguments]  [rdmd arguments] progfile.d	[program argu-
       ments]

DESCRIPTION
       rdmd is a program to compile, cache and execute D source	code files  or
       'pseudo	shell  scripts'	 (using	the she-bang syntax with dmd v0.146 or
       above) on Linux and Windows systems.

       It will cache the executable in the /tmp	directory by default and  will
       re-compile  the	executable  if any of the source file, the compiler or
       rdmd itself is newer than the cached executable.	It can optionally  use
       gdmd if specified, but uses dmd by default.

OPTIONS
       --build-only
	      Just build the executable, don't run it

       --chatty
	      Write compiler commands to stdout	before executing them

       --compiler=(dmd|gdmd|ldmd2)
	      Use the specified	compiler (e.g. gdmd) instead of	dmd

       --dry-run
	      Do  not  compile,	 just show what	commands would be run (implies
	      --chatty)

       --eval=code
	      Evaluate code as in perl -e (multiple --eval allowed)

       --exclude=package
	      Exclude a	package	from the build (multiple --exclude allowed)

       --include=package
	      Negate an	--exclude switch or a package excluded by default

       --extra-file=file
	      Include an extra source or object	in the compilation. Useful  if
	      you  need	 to  add an extra object (compiled by another language
	      maybe) or	an extra source	(when rdmd  picked  up	the  .di  file
	      rather  than  the	 .d file) when compiling the program (multiple
	      --extra-file allowed).

       --force
	      Force re-compilation of source code [default = do	not force]

       --help Print help

       --loop Assume "foreach (line; stdin.byLine()) { ... }" for eval

       --main Add a stub main program to the mix (e.g. for unittesting)

       --makedepend
	      Print dependencies in makefile format and	exit

       --makedepfile=file
	      Print dependencies in makefile format to file and	continue

       --man  Open web browser on manual page

       --shebang
	      On some operating	systems	(e.g. Linux) all of the	 arguments  to
	      the interpreter in a shebang line	are passed as one concatenated
	      string.	In  such an environment	if you need to supply multiple
	      options to rdmd, place this option before	any others.  This will
	      cause rdmd to parse the string and extract all of	the options.

       --tmpdir=tmp_dir_path
	      Specify directory	to store cached	program	and other  temporaries
	      [default	=  as  per http://dlang.org/phobos/std_file.html#.tem-
	      pDir]

ENVIRONMENT
       RDMD_DMD
	      Specifies	the D compiler to use, in the same way as  --compiler,
	      when --compiler is not specified.

NOTES
       dmd or gdmd must	be in the current user context $PATH

       rdmd does not support execution of D source code	via stdin

       rdmd will only compile and execute files	with a '.d' file extension

       rdmd's functionality will probably get folded into dmd itself
