compilescript/README.md

**cppscript** allows you to execute C++ files as scripts.

It compiles the source file, stores the binary in `${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/cppscript/`
and executes it.

It does compile the file every time at the moment.

## Usage

Use `#!/usr/bin/env cppscript` as shebang and write the compiler arguments in
the line below with the prefix: `//cppscript:`

### Example

```C++
#!/usr/bin/env cppscript
//cppscript: -Wall -pedantic -Wextra

#include <iostream>

using std::cout;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    cout << "Hello world!\n";
    cout << argv[1] << '\n';
}
```
