These command-line switches
essentially provide a little linker language for linking a shell script or a
program together with {\scm} modules.
The command-line processor serially opens structures and loads code into a
given package.
Switches that side-effect a package operate on a particular ``current''
package; there are switches to change this package.
(These switches provide functionality equivalent to the interactive
\ex{,open} \ex{,load} \ex{,in} and \ex{,new} commands.)
Except where indicated, switches specify actions that are executed in a
left-to-right order.
The initial current package is the user package, which is completely
empty and opens (imports the bindings of) the \RnRS{} and scsh structures.

As above, but the current module is ignored. The script is loaded into the
\ex{exec} package (``do-exec''), and hence must be written in the
{\scm} exec language.
