Using the command line interface
This course has relied exclusively on Rouge Studio, the web-based development environment to execute source code. However, it is also possible to execute Rogue locally on your machine, outside the browser. Once Rouge is installed, it can be invoked from the command line. The run command, followed by the path to the program that is supposed to be executed checks the program for errors and subsequently executes the program, given that no errors were detected:
rouge run <path-to-your-program.rouge>
Further information about the command line interface can be obtained by running the following command to display the help menu:
rouge --help
