For compatibility with some versions of Guile 1.4, you can also use the
|

form @code{(symbol ...)} (that is, a list of only symbols that doesn't
|
||||
start with @code{@@}), which is equivalent to @code{(@@ (symbol ...)
|
||||
main)}, or @code{(symbol ...) symbol} (that is, a list of only symbols
|
||||
followed by a symbol), which is equivalent to @code{(@@ (symbol ...)
|
||||
symbol)}. We recommend to use the equivalent forms directly since they
|
||||
correspond to the @code{(@@ ...)} read syntax that can be used in
|

normal code. See @ref{Using Guile Modules} and @ref{Scripting

As a shorthand you can use the form @code{(symbol ...)}, that is, a list

of only symbols that doesn't start with @code{@@}. It is equivalent to

@code{(@@ @var{module-name} main)}, where @var{module-name} is

@code{(symbol ...)} form. @xref{Using Guile Modules} and @ref{Scripting

containing @var{n} objects each. It's easy to write @code{choose} given
|

@code{fact}, so we might write the script this way:

To call a specific procedure from a given module, we can use the special
|
||||
form @code{(@@ (@var{module}) @var{procedure})}:
|
||||
|
||||
@example
|
||||
#!/usr/local/bin/guile \
|
||||
-l fact -e (@@ (fac) main) -s
|
||||
!#
|
||||
(define-module (fac)
|
||||
#:export (main))
|
||||
|
||||
(define (choose n m)
|
||||
(/ (fact m) (* (fact (- m n)) (fact n))))
|
||||
|
||||
(define (main args)
|
||||
(let ((n (string->number (cadr args)))
|

(m (string->number (caddr args))))

We can use @code{@@@@} to invoke non-exported procedures. For exported
|
||||
procedures, we can simplify this call with the shorthand
|
||||
@code{(@var{module})}:
|
||||
|
||||
@example
|
||||
#!/usr/local/bin/guile \
|
||||
-l fact -e (fac) -s
|
||||
!#
|
||||
(define-module (fac)
|
||||
#:export (main))
|
||||
|
||||
(define (choose n m)
|
||||
(/ (fact m) (* (fact (- m n)) (fact n))))
|
||||
|
||||
(define (main args)
|
||||
(let ((n (string->number (cadr args)))
|
||||
(m (string->number (caddr args))))
|
||||
(display (choose n m))
|
||||
(newline)))
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
For maximum portability, we can instead use the shell to execute
|
||||
@command{guile} with specified command line arguments. Here we need to
|
||||
take care to quote the command arguments correctly:
|
||||
|
||||
@example
|
||||
#!/usr/bin/env sh
|
||||
exec guile -l fact -e '(@@ (fac) main)' -s "$0" "$@"
|
||||
!#
|
||||
(define-module (fac)
|
||||
#:export (main))
|
||||
|
||||
(define (choose n m)
|
||||
(/ (fact m) (* (fact (- m n)) (fact n))))
|
||||
|
||||
(define (main args)
|
||||
(let ((n (string->number (cadr args)))
|
||||
(m (string->number (caddr args))))
|
||||
(display (choose n m))
|
||||
(newline)))
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, seasoned scripters are probably missing a mention of
|
||||
subprocesses. In Bash, for example, most shell scripts run other
|
||||
programs like @code{sed} or the like to do the actual work.
