NAME
       perlcc - generate executables from Perl programs

SYNOPSIS
	   $ perlcc hello	       # Compiles into executable 'a.out'
	   $ perlcc -o hello hello.pl  # Compiles into executable 'hello'

	   $ perlcc -O file	       # Compiles using the optimised C backend
	   $ perlcc -B file	       # Compiles using the bytecode backend

	   $ perlcc -c file	       # Creates a C file, 'file.c'
	   $ perlcc -S -o hello file   # Creates a C file, 'file.c',
				       # then compiles it to executable 'hello'
	   $ perlcc -c out.c file      # Creates a C file, 'out.c' from 'file'

	   $ perlcc -e 'print q//'     # Compiles a one-liner into 'a.out'
	   $ perlcc -c -e 'print q//'  # Creates a C file 'a.out.c'

	   $ perlcc -I /foo hello      # extra headers (notice the space after -I)
	   $ perlcc -L /foo hello      # extra libraries (notice the space after -L)

	   $ perlcc -r hello	       # compiles 'hello' into 'a.out', runs 'a.out'.
	   $ perlcc -r hello a b c     # compiles 'hello' into 'a.out', runs 'a.out'.
				       # with arguments 'a b c'

	   $ perlcc hello -log c       # compiles 'hello' into 'a.out' logs compile
				       # log into 'c'.

DESCRIPTION
       perlcc creates standalone executables from Perl programs, using the
       code generators provided by the B module. At present, you may either
       create executable Perl bytecode, using the "-B" option, or generate and
       compile C files using the standard and 'optimised' C backends.

       The code generated in this way is not guaranteed to work. The whole
       codegen suite ("perlcc" included) should be considered very experimen‐
       tal. Use for production purposes is strongly discouraged.

OPTIONS
       -Llibrary directories
	   Adds the given directories to the library search path when C code
	   is passed to your C compiler.

       -Iinclude directories
	   Adds the given directories to the include file search path when C
	   code is passed to your C compiler; when using the Perl bytecode
	   option, adds the given directories to Perl's include path.

       -o output file name
	   Specifies the file name for the final compiled executable.

       -c C file name
	   Create C code only; do not compile to a standalone binary.

       -e perl code
	   Compile a one-liner, much the same as "perl -e '...'"

       -S  Do not delete generated C code after compilation.

       -B  Use the Perl bytecode code generator.

       -O  Use the 'optimised' C code generator. This is more experimental
	   than everything else put together, and the code created is not
	   guaranteed to compile in finite time and memory, or indeed, at all.

       -v  Increase verbosity of output; can be repeated for more verbose out‐
	   put.

       -r  Run the resulting compiled script after compiling it.

       -log
	   Log the output of compiling to a file rather than to stdout.
