utop - Online in the Cloud

PROGRAM:

NAME

utop - Universal toplevel for OCaml

SYNOPSIS

utop [ options ] [ object-files ] [ script-file ]

DESCRIPTION

utop is a enhanced toplevel for OCaml with many features, including context sensitive
completion.

When you start utop what you see is the prompt followed by a bar containing words. This is
the completion bar, it contains the possible completion and is updated as you type. The
highlighted word in the completion bar is the selected word. You can navigate using the
keys Alt+Left and Alt+Right and you can complete using the currently selected word by
pressing Alt+Tab (you can configure these bindings in the file ~/.lambda-term-inputrc ,
see lambda-term-inputrc(5) for details).

utop supports completion on:

* directives and directive arguments
* identifiers
* record fields
* variants
* function labels
* object methods

Colors are by default configured for terminals with dark colors, such as white on black,
so the prompt may looks too bright on light colors terminals. You can change that by
setting the color profile of utop. For that type:

UTop.set_profile UTop.Light;;

You can then add this line to your ~/.ocamlinit file.

You can enable basic syntax highlighting in utop by writing a ~/.utoprc file. See
utoprc(5) for that.

Finally utop can run in emacs. For that you have to add the following line to your
~/.emacs file:

(autoload 'utop "utop" "Toplevel for OCaml" t)

then you can run utop by pressing M-x and typing "utop". utop support completion in emacs
mode. Just press Tab to complete a word. You can also integrate it with the tuareg, caml
or typerex mode. For that add the following lines to your ~/.emacs file:

(autoload 'utop-minor-mode "utop" "Minor mode for utop" t)
(add-hook 'tuareg-mode-hook 'utop-minor-mode)

OPTIONS
