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 “-”.
