CScript

Example script

#!/usr/bin/cscript -lm

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

int main(int num, char *opts[])
  {
    printf("Hi from stu.\n");
    printf("These are the params I got:\n");
    int lp;
    for (lp = 0; lp < num; lp++)
      {
        printf ("param (%d) #%d: %s\n", (int)exp2(lp), lp, opts[lp]);
      }

    return 0;
  }

If you use functions that aren't in libc you can add -l on the she-bang line to include the library in the precompile step. In test.c I use the exp2 function which is in libm.

If you need to pass parameters to your script that shouldn't get picked up by the cscript process you can use the -- flag.

./test.c -lm -- --flag-for-script

output:

Hi from stu.
These are the params I got:
param (1) #0: ./test.c
param (2) #1: --flag-for-script

In that example -lm is passed to cscript for precompiling, and --flag-for-script is passed to the script, you can see the script picked it up as its first parameter.
