2.3 Options for Output Files

-o FILE, --outputfile=FILE

Write output to FILE (- for stdout). If this option is given, then a single input file may be given. Otherwise, an arbitrary number of input files can be processed.

--unix, --target=unix

When invoked with -x, produce Unix executables even if running under Windows.

--windows, --target=windows

When invoked with -x, produce Windows executables even if running under Unix.

--execheader=STRING

When invoked with option -x, the compiler prepends a header to the output file so that it is interpreted as executable by the operating system. Under Unix, the default header is as follows:

#!/bin/sh 
exec ozengine $0 "$@"

The --execheader option allows you to specify a different header.

--execpath=STRING

Uses the header given above in the description of --execheader, except that ozengine is replaced by STRING.

--execfile=FILE

Reads in FILE and uses this as header. Under Windows, the default behaviour is to use the file provided in ozhome/bin/ozwrapper.bin, where ozhome is Mozart's installation folder. ozwrapper.bin is a Windows executable that launches ozengine, i. e., a console application (CUI).

--execwrapper=FILE

Reads in ozhome/bin/FILE and uses it as header for executable files. Apart from ozwrapper.bin, an ozwrapperw.bin is supplied that launches ozenginew instead of ozengine, i. e., a Windows application (GUI). This option provides a convenient way to use this alternative wrapper.

-z N, --compress=N

Pickles may be written in a compressed format. By default they are not compressed. -z N selects the compression level: N is an integer between 0 (uncompressed) and 9 (maximum compression). Compressing a pickle may improve loading/downloading time.
