precc

precc is a pre-processor for coffeescript. It allows to include other coffee-script files with proper indentation handling.

Syntax

To include another file into your script, use the following command:

#_include filename 

This includes the file filename.coffee at the current position.

Indentation handling

Assume you have the following script:

multiply = (x, y) ->
  #_include method 

and method.coffee contains:

x * y

then the result is:

multiply = (x, y) ->
  #----------------------------------------------------------------------------# 
  # from <./method.coffee> 
  x * y
  #----------------------------------------------------------------------------# 

Usage

precc comes as a command-line tool called precc. Invoked without any argument, it reads from standard input. Multiple files as arguments are concatenated together.
