A Summary of Commands

tas

Description

The tas command is used to assemble script instructions recorded in an application-name.t file. It produces an executable file designated application-name.T, which is stored in a table as a list of executable script instructions.

The -eoption requires exact string matches for speech phrases.

The arguments must be in the order given above for the command to work properly. The directory search specified by the arguments are I (include file) and T (listfile). No space is allowed between the -Iand -Tflags and their path names, but space is allowed after the -eflag. Note that the -Ioption to tas is interpreted by cpp(1).

The remaining arguments are:

-U <name> — Remove any initial definition of name, where name is a reserved symbol that is predefined by the particular preprocessor (this option is interpreted by cpp(1)).

-D <name> and -D<name-def>— Define name with value def as if by a #define. If no -defis given, name is defined with value 1. The -Doption has lower precedence than the -Uoption. That is, if the same name is used in both a -Uoption and a -Doption, the name is undefined regardless of the order of the options (this option is interpreted by cpp(1)).

-Y <dir> — Use directory dir in place of the standard list of directories when searching for #include files (this option is interpreted by cpp(1)).
