All options to %s are allowed.  See %s -help.

<torun>, if present, is an object or script file to run.
If no <torun> is present, run an interactive shell.

Option -howtorun allows explicitly specifying how to run <torun>:
    script: it is a script file
    object: it is an object name
    guess: (the default) try to guess

Option -i requests that a file be pre-loaded.  It is only
meaningful for interactive shells.

Option -e requests that its argument be executed as Scala code.

Option -savecompiled requests that the compiled script be saved
for future use.

Option -nocompdaemon requests that the fsc offline compiler not be used.

Option -Dproperty=value sets a Java system property.
