12 polyc is a script that compiles a Standard ML program using the Poly/ML
13 compiler and creates an executable program from it. It can also be
14 used to link object files created using the PolyML.export function with
15 the Poly/ML libraries or to produce an object file. When used to com‐
16 pile a Standard ML program it expects the main function to be called
17 "main" e.g. fun main() = print "Hello World\n";
18
19 If the source file is a text file it is assumed to be ML source. If it
20 is a binary file it is assumed to be an object file and will be linked
21 with the Poly/ML library.
22
24 -c Compile but do not link. The object file is written to a file whose
25 name is based on the source file name with any extension replaced with
26 .o
27
