How to use juliac.jl?

General Usage
21

With the latest commit

the simple hello world is

function (@main)(args::Vector{String})::Cint
	println(Core.stdout, "Hello, world!")
	return 0
end

In that use, no module is needed and the args argument is passed as a Vector of strings rather than a Vector of Any.

# julia +nightly juliac.jl --experimental --output-exe hello --trim hello.jl

is required to compile a hello executable.

Note: Required files should be install manually. This would help:

# wget -nc https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JuliaLang/julia/refs/heads/master/contrib/juliac.jl
# wget -nc https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JuliaLang/julia/refs/heads/master/contrib/juliac-buildscript.jl
# wget -nc https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JuliaLang/julia/refs/heads/master/contrib/julia-config.jl
