NAME
eli - compiler construction kit
SYNOPSIS
eli [ -c cache ] [ -r ] [ command ... ]
DESCRIPTION
eli is a compiler construction kit that works on the base of odin(1), a software build and configuration managment system. It works as a wrapper script, it sets ODINPATH to /usr/lib/Eli and calls then odin with all given arguments. Therefor see the odin documentation for details on the eli invocation.
The whole documentation for eli exists in the formats Texinfo, PostScript and HTML. eli has a builtin info browser. If it is correctly installed, you should be able to browse the info documentation with eli '?'.
The HTML and PostScript versions of documentation can be found in the eli-doc package (/usr/share/doc/eli-doc/) or online at http://eli-project.sourceforge.net/elionline/.
OPTIONS
eli accepts the same options like odin (what a surprise ;-)). Here a short description taken from the odin manpage:
- -c cache
-
Use the directory cache as the cache.
- -r
-
Reset the cache. This deletes all computed files currently stored in the cache.
- -R
-
Reset the packages. This resets the cache and installs the most recent version of each tool package.
You can also provide eli commands on the commandline. See the eli documentation for details.
