Common options

The following options are common to the TOM tools.

-h

Output an invocation summary and exit.

-I path

Add the elements of the colon-separated directories in the path to the list of directories searched for units. When searching for a unit named foo, first the file foo.u is looked for in each directory of the search path. If it can not be found, the search is repeated for foo/foo.u relative to each directory in the path. The default search path defaults to /usr/local/tom, but is actually $prefix/tom where $prefix was specified during installation, for example /usr/gnu, or /usr.

-u unit

Name the unit to be handled. Default is the single unit in the current directory (`.'). If this option is not provided, it is an error if the current directory contains not exactly one file with the extension .u. If the option -u foo is provided, the file foo.u will be used as the unit file.

-v

Increase verbosity.

--version

Output the version information to stdout and exit. With -v (preceding --version), the information is more verbose.
