===== Command-line arguments =====

gnetlist accepts several optional arguments on the command-line. You can get a list of them by running ''gnetlist -h''. gnetlist also has a manpage (''man gnetlist'') which lists all of the command line options that it accepts.

==== Message output and diagnostics ====

| **-q**                    | Quiet mode. Turn off all warnings/notes/messages. |
| **-v**, **%%--%%verbose** | Verbose mode.  Output extra diagnostic information. |
| **-h**, **%%--%%help**    | Print a help message. |
| **-V**, **%%--%%version** | Print gnetlist version information. |
| **%%--%%list-backends**       | Print a list of installed netlist backends. |

==== Netlist processing ====

| **-o** __FILE__    | Write the generated netlist to __FILE__. |
| **-g** __BACKEND__ | Specify which backend to use to generate netlist data. |
| **-O** __STRING__  | Pass an option __STRING__ to the netlist backend. |
| **-i**             | Enter the interactive mode Scheme REPL instead of running a backend. |
| **%%--%%**             | Treat all remaining arguments as schematic or symbol filenames.  Use this if you have a schematic filename which begins with "-". |

==== Scheme extensibility ====

| **-L** __DIRECTORY__          | Prepend __DIRECTORY__ to the list of directories to be searched for Scheme files. |
| **-c** __EXPR__               | Specify a Scheme expression to be evaluated at startup. |
| **-l** __FILE__               | Specify a Scheme script to be executed before loading a backend. |
| **-m** __FILE__               | Specify a Scheme script to be executed after loading a backend. |
