.TH RUNGHC 1 "28 NOVEMBER 2007"
.SH NAME
runghc \- program to run Haskell programs without first having to compile them.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B runghc
.RI
[runghc|flags] [GHC|flags] module [program|flags]...
.br
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B runghc
is considered a non-interactive interpreter and part of The Glasgow Haskell Compiler.
.B runghc
is a compiler that automatically runs its results at the end.
.PP
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
the flags are:
.TP
.B \-f
it tells runghc which GHC to use to run the program. If it is not given then runghc will search for GHC in the directories in the system search path. runghc -f /path/to/ghc
.TP
.B \--
runghc will try to work out where the boundaries between [runghc flags] and [GHC flags], and [GHC flags] and module are, but you can use a -- flag if it doesn't get it right. For example, runghc -- -fglasgow-exts Foo
means runghc won't try to use glasgow-exts as the path to GHC, but instead will pass the flag to GHC.
.SH EXAMPLES
.TP
.B runghc foo
.PP
.B runghc -f /path/to/ghc foo
.TP
.B runghc -- -fglasgow-exts Foo
