NAME
     rdmd - Digital Mars D executable cacher

SYNOPSIS
     rdmd [compiler arguments] [rdmd arguments] progfile.d [program arguments]

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 it-
     self 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).

     --forceForce 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 [de-
	    fault = as per http://dlang.org/phobos/std_file.html#.tempDir]

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
