40 "Process NAME's MACRO-ARGS using a set of command line OPTIONS.
41 After doing so, stores settings in local symbols as declared by OPTIONS;
42 then evaluates BODY-FORMS -- assuming all was OK.
44 OPTIONS is a list, beginning with one or more elements of the form:
45 \(SHORT LONG VALUE SYMBOL HELP-STRING)
46 Each of these elements represents a particular command-line switch.
48 SHORT is either nil, or a character that can be used as a switch -SHORT.
49 LONG is either nil, or a string that can be used as a switch --LONG.
50 At least one of SHORT and LONG must be non-nil.
51 VALUE is the value associated with the option. It can be either:
52 t - the option needs a value to be specified after the switch;
53 nil - the option is given the value t;
54 anything else - specifies the actual value for the option.
55 SYMBOL is either nil, or the name of the Lisp symbol that will be bound
56 to VALUE. A nil SYMBOL calls `eshell-show-usage', and so is appropriate
57 for a \"--help\" type option.
58 HELP-STRING is a documentation string for the option.
60 Any remaining elements of OPTIONS are :KEYWORD arguments. Some take
61 arguments, some do not. The recognized :KEYWORDS are:
64 STRING is an external command to run if there are unknown switches.
67 STRING is the initial part of the command's documentation string.
68 It appears before the options are listed.
71 STRING is an optional trailing part of the command's documentation string.
72 It appears after the options, but before the final part of the
73 documentation about the associated external command (if there is one).
76 If present, then show the usage message if the command is called with no
80 If present, do not pass MACRO-ARGS through `eshell-flatten-list'
81 and `eshell-stringify-list'.
83 For example, OPTIONS might look like:
85 '((?C nil nil multi-column \"multi-column display\")
86 (nil \"help\" nil nil \"show this usage display\")
87 (?r \"reverse\" nil reverse-list \"reverse order while sorting\")
89 :usage \"[OPTION]... [FILE]...
90 List information about the FILEs (the current directory by default).
91 Sort entries alphabetically across.\")
93 `eshell-eval-using-options' returns the value of the last form in
94 BODY-FORMS. If instead an external command is run (because of
95 an unknown option), the tag `eshell-external' will be thrown with
96 the new process for its value.
98 Lastly, any remaining arguments will be available in a locally
99 interned variable `args' (created using a `let' form)."
