9 The entry point

The main program has the task of gluing everything so far together. It picks a source input (either the first file argument or stdin) and runs the basic read-eval loop from the previous section.

«entry-point» ::=
(module+ main
  (let ([source-input-port
          (if (> (vector-length (current-command-line-arguments)) 0)
            (open-input-file (vector-ref (current-command-line-arguments) 0))
            (current-input-port))])
    (let-values
      ([(ctx stack)
        (interp-run
          (make-context
            #:definitions
            (read-eval-loop-definitions (*builtins*) source-input-port)
            ; Run the loop on its own
            #:body '(read-eval-loop))
          ; Start with an empty stack
          '())])
      (void))))
