Scheme Request for Implementation 193,
"Command line,"
by Lassi Kortela,
has gone into final status.

The document and an archive of the discussion are available at https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-193/.

Here's the abstract:

R6RS and R7RS define a command-line procedure. While a useful baseline, the specification is not detailed enough to cover all practical situations. This SRFI clarifies the definition of command-line and adds a few related procedures. Scheme scripts, standalone executables, compilation and REPL use are accounted for. Option parsing is out of scope.

Here is the commit summary since the most recent draft:

• Link to implementation source code
• Add Chicken Scheme implementation
• Evaluate script-file early
• Rename SRFI 193 per Lassi's request.
• Follow US Copyright Office recommendations.
• Finalize SRFI 193. Update abstract.

Here are the diffs since the most recent draft:

Many thanks to Lassi and to everyone who contributed to the discussion of this SRFI.
