To see what command line arguments are available, use the -h flag. It will produce something similar to the following:
harry:trunk mooneer$ kite -h This is kite, version 1.0a1 (built on i386-apple-darwin9.1.0) Copyright (C) 2007 Mooneer Salem Usage: kite [-h|-v] [file] -v: Print version information -h: This message [file]: File to execute or run (optional). If not specified, defaults to standard input.
To run a Kite application, simply include the filename as an argument:
harry:trunk mooneer$ kite test.kt Hello, world! harry:trunk mooneer$
Not including a filename will cause Kite to take the program from standard input:
harry:trunk mooneer$ kite "Hello, world!"|print() ^D Hello, world! harry:trunk mooneer$
