The build, run and test commands take the same parameters
38+
as the rustc command.
39+
40+
.SS "BUILD COMMAND"
41+
42+
The \fBbuild\fR command is a shortcut for the \fBrustc\fR command line.
43+
All options will be passed to the compiler verbatim. For example, to build
44+
an optimised version:
45+
46+
$ rust build -O <filename>
47+
48+
.SS "RUN COMMAND"
49+
50+
The \fBrun\fR command is a shortcut for the \fBrustc\fR command line.
51+
All options will be passed to the compiler verbatim, and if the compilation
52+
is successful, the resultant executable will be invoked. For example, to
53+
build and run an optimised version:
54+
55+
$ rust run -O <filename>
56+
57+
.SS "TEST COMMAND"
58+
59+
The \fBtest\fR command is a shortcut for the command line:
60+
61+
$ rustc --test <filename> -o <filestem>test~ && ./<filestem>test~
62+
63+
.SS "DOC COMMAND"
64+
65+
The \fBdoc\fR command is an alias for the rustdoc program. It is equivalent to:
66+
67+
$ rustdoc [options] <cratefile>
68+
69+
.SS "PKG COMMAND"
70+
71+
The \fBpkg\fR command is an alias for the rustpkg program. It is equivalent to:
72+
73+
$ rustpkg [options] <cratefile>
74+
75+
.SS "SKETCH COMMAND"
76+
77+
The \fBsketch\fR command launches the \fBrusti\fR interactive shell.
78+
79+
.SS "HELP COMMAND"
80+
81+
The \fBhelp\fR command displays a summary of available commands (ie. this text).
82+
83+
.SH "EXAMPLES"
84+
85+
To build an executable (with a main function):
86+
$ rust build hello.rs
87+
88+
To build a library from a source file:
89+
$ rust build --lib hello-lib.rs
90+
91+
To build and run an executable:
92+
$ rust run hello.rs
93+
94+
To build an executable with unit tests and execute the tests:
95+
$ rust test hello.rs
96+
97+

.SH DESCRIPTION
9+
This tool generates API reference documentation by extracting comments from
10+
source code written in the Rust language, available at <\fBhttps://www.rust-
11+
lang.org\fR>. It provides several output formats for the generated
12+
documentation.

.SH "OUTPUT FORMATS"
33+
34+
The rustdoc tool can generate documentation in either the Markdown
35+
or HTML formats. It requires the pandoc tool
36+
<\fBhttp://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/\fR> for conversion features.
37+
38+
.SH "EXAMPLES"
39+
40+
To generate documentation for the source in the current directory:
41+
$ rustdoc hello.rs
42+
43+
To build documentation into a subdirectory named 'doc' in the Markdown
44+
format:
45+
$ rustdoc --output-dir doc --output-format markdown hello.rs
46+
47+
The generated HTML can be viewed with any standard web browser, while
48+
the Markdown version is well-suited for conversion into other formats.

19+
.SH DESCRIPTION
20+
21+
This program is a REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) for the Rust language, available
22+
at <\fBhttps://www.rust-lang.org\fR>. It provides an interactive shell to
23+
evaluate Rust expressions, functions and code snippets, and to experiment with
24+
Rust code.
25+
26+
.B WARNING:
27+
The Rust REPL is experimental and may be unstable. If you encounter problems,
28+
please use the compiler instead.
29+
30+
.SH OPTIONS
31+
32+
Currently none.
33+
34+
.SH SPECIAL COMMANDS
35+
36+
The interactive shell evaluates all input as a sequence of Rust expressions,
37+
except for a set of special commands prefixed by a colon ':'. These special
38+
commands are described below:
