8. Arguments on the Command Line

File(s) to be compiled can be specified on the command line. They are compiled in the order specified. If a file name ends in a comma, the compiler enters subcommand mode when it compiles that file (sticky subcommands are sticky, as usual). For example, the command line:

compil msl:foomsl:bar msl:baz

causes the compiler to enter subcommand mode before compiling msl:foo. It does not enter subcommand mode before compiling the remaining files. The compiler returns to its caller after all three files have been compiled.

XRFMRG also accepts one or more file names on the command line. A file name may begin with an @ to indicate an indirect file name. XRFMRG always prompts for the output file.

Command line syntaxes are subject to change.
