DESCRIPTION
       camlp5  is  a  Pre-Processor-Pretty-Printer for OCaml, parsing a source
       file and printing some result on standard output.

       camlp5o, camlp5r and camlp5sch are versions of camlp5 with  some	 files
       already loaded (see further).

       camlp5o.cma,  camlp5r.cma  and  camlp5sch.cma are files to be loaded in
       ocaml toplevel to use the camlp5 machinery

       mkcamlp5 and mkcamlp5.opt creates camlp5 executables  with  almost  the
       same options than ocamlmktop. See further.

       ocpp5  is  an universal preprocessor, treating any kind of source file,
       generating the same text with the possible quotations expanded.

       camlp5o.opt and camlp5r.opt are versions of camlp5o  and	 camlp5r  com‐
       piled  by  the  native-code  compiler ocamlopt. They are faster but not
       extensible. And they are not available in all installations of camlp5.

LOAD OPTIONS
       The load options select parsing and printing actions recorded in	 OCaml
       object files (ending with .cmo or .cma). Several usage of these options
       are authorized. They must precede the other options.

       An optional -- may end the load options.

       -I directory
	      Add directory in the search path for files  loaded.  Unless  the
	      option  -nolib is used, the camlp5 library directory is appended
	      to the path. Warning: there is no automatic search in  the  cur‐
	      rent directory: add "-I ." for this.

       -where Print camlp5 library directory name and exit.

       -nolib No  automatic  search for objects files in camlp5 library direc‐
	      tory.

       object-file
	      The file is loaded in camlp5 core.

OTHER OPTIONS
       The others options are:

       file   Treat file as an interface file if it ends with .mli and	as  an
	      implementation file if it ends with .ml.

       -intf file
	      Treat file as an interface file, whatever its extension.

       -impl file
	      Treat file as an implementation file, whatever its extension.

       -unsafe
	      Generate unsafe accesses to arrays and strings.

       -noassert
	      Do not compile assertion checks.

       -verbose
	      More verbose in parsing errors.

       -QD file
	      Dump  in	file in case of syntax error in the result of a quota‐
	      tion expansion.

       -o out-file
	      Print the result on out-file instead of standard output. File is
	      opened with open_out_bin (see OCaml library Pervasives).

       -v     Print the version number and exit.

       -help  Print  the  available  options and exit. This print includes the
	      options possibly added by the loaded object files.

       The others options can be extended by loaded object files. The provided
       files add the following options:

       -l line-length
	      Added  by	 pr_o.cmo  and	pr_r.cmo: set the line length (default
	      78).

       -sep string
	      Added by	pr_o.cmo  and  pr_r.cmo:  print	 this  string  between
	      phrases instead of comments.

       -no_ss Added by pr_o.cmo: do not print double semicolons

       -D ident
	      Added by pa_macro.cmo: define the ident.

       -U ident
	      Added by pa_macro.cmo: undefine the ident.

PROVIDED FILES
       These files are installed in the directory /usr/local/lib/ocaml/camlp5.

       Parsing files:
	   pa_r.cmo: revised syntax
	   pa_rp.cmo: streams and parsers
	   pa_lexer.cmo: lexers
	   pa_o.cmo: normal syntax
	   pa_op.cmo: streams and parsers
	   pa_oop.cmo: streams and parsers (without code optimization)
	   pa_scheme.cmo: scheme syntax
	   pa_extend.cmo: syntax extension for grammars
	   pa_extfold.cmo: extension of pa_extend with FOLD0 and FOLD1
	   pa_extfun.cmo: syntax extension for extensible functions
	   pa_extprint.cmo: syntax extensions for extensible printers
	   pa_pprintf.cmo: syntax extension for pprintf statement
	   pa_fstream.cmo: syntax extension for functional streams
	   pa_macro.cmo: add macros (ifdef, define) like in C
	   pa_lefteval.cmo: left-to-right evaluation of parameters
	   pa_pragma.cmo: directive #pragma

       Printing files:
	   pr_r.cmo: revised syntax without objects and labels
	   pr_ro.cmo: revised syntax for objects and labels
	   pr_rp.cmo: try to rebuild streams and parsers syntax
	   pr_o.cmo: normal syntax
	   pr_op.cmo: try to rebuild streams and parsers syntax
	   pr_scheme.cmo: Scheme syntax
	   pr_schemep.cmo: try to rebuild streams and parsers syntax
	   pr_extend.cmo: try to rebuild EXTEND statements
	   pr_extfun.cmo: try to rebuild extfun statements

	   pr_dump.cmo: dump syntax tree for ocaml compiler
	   pr_depend.cmo: file dependencies
	   pr_null.cmo: no output

       Quotation expanders:
	   q_MLast.cmo: syntax tree nodes (in revised syntax)
	   q_ast.cmo: syntax tree nodes in user full syntax
	   q_phony.cmo: keeping quotations for pretty printing

       The command camlp5o is a shortcut for:
	   camlp5 pa_o.cmo pa_op.cmo pr_dump.cmo

       The command camlp5r is a shortcut for:
	   camlp5 pa_r.cmo pa_rp.cmo pr_dump.cmo

       The command camlp5sch is a shortcut for:
	   camlp5 pa_scheme.cmo pr_dump.cmo

       The file camlp5o.cma can be loaded in the toplevel to start camlp5 with
       OCaml syntax.

       The file camlp5r.cma can be loaded in the toplevel to start camlp5 with
       revised syntax.

       The  file  camlp5sch.cma	 can be loaded in the toplevel to start camlp5
       with Scheme syntax.

MKCAMLP5
       mkcamlp5 and mkcamlp5.opt creates camlp5 executables  with  almost  the
       same  options  than  ocamlmktop.	 The  version  mkcamlp5.opt can create
       native code executables, faster but not extensible.

       For mkcamlp5, the interfaces to be visible must be explicitly added  in
       the command line as ".cmi" files. For example, how to add the the OCaml
       module "str":
	   mkcamlp5 -custom str.cmi str.cma -cclib -lstr -o camlp5str

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE
       The following environment variable is also consulted:

       CAMLP5PARAM
	      Set the grammars parsing algorithm  parameters.	This  variable
	      must  be	a  sequence  of parameter specifications.  A parameter
	      specification is a letter optionally followed  by	 an  =	and  a
	      value. There are four possible parameters:

       b (backtrack)
	      Set the backtrack algorithm as default.

       t (trace)
	      Trace  symbols  (terminals and non-terminals) while parsing with
	      backtracking.

       y (trace-stalling)
	      In backtracking, trace the advance in the input  stream  (number
	      of  unfrozen tokens) and the possible stalling (number of tokens
	      tests).

       l (maximum-stalling)
	      Set the maximum stalling value.

FILES
       Library directory of camlp5 in the present installation:
       /usr/local/lib/ocaml/camlp5
