for tweaking code generation from Inter:
-kit X include Inter code from the kit called X
-pipeline X specify code-generation pipeline by name (default is "compile")
-pipeline-file X specify code-generation pipeline as file X
-variable X set pipeline variable X (in form name=value)

-no-census-update don't update the extensions census (default is -census-update)
-crash-all intentionally crash on Problem messages, for backtracing (default is -no-crash-all)

-no-problems don't produce (an HTML) Problems report page (default is -problems)
-no-progress don't display progress percentages (default is -progress)
-require-problem X return 0 unless exactly this Problem message is generated
-no-resource-checking don't check that figures, sounds and similar resources exist at compile-time (default is -resource-checking)
-sigils print Problem message sigils (default is -no-sigils)
-silence practice 'silence is golden': print only Unix-style errors (default is -no-silence)
-test-output X write output of internal tests to file X
-at X specify that this tool is installed at X
-crash intentionally crash on internal errors, for backtracing (default is -no-crash)
-fixtime pretend the time is 11 a.m. on 28 March 2016 for testing (default is -no-fixtime)
