ocamldsort - Dependency sorter for OCaml source files

       The ocamldsort(1) command scans a set of OCaml source files (.ml and .mli files), sorts them according to
       their dependencies and prints the sorted files in order to link their corresponding .cmo files.

       For  ocamldsort(1)  to  work it must get a list of dependencies generated by ocamldep(1), if the standard
       input to ocamldsort(1) has been redirected then  ocamldsort  assumes  that  this  is  a  dependency  file
       generated by ocamldep(1).  Otherwise ocamldsort calls ocamldep(1) to generate the dependency list itself.
       In either case the source files to be sorted should be given as arguments to the ocamldsort(1) command.

       ocamldsort(1) can be used to compile and link simple projects with one command, such as:

       ocamlc $(ocamldsort *.ml)

       if your project doesn't contain .mli files or:

       ocamlc -c $(ocamldsort -mli *.ml *.mli) && ocamlc $(ocamldsort -byte *.ml)

       if it contains .mli files.

       However  for larger projects where separate compilation is desirable, ocamldsort(1) can also be used from
       within a makefile. Here is a typical makefile example:

       TARGET=my_program
       OCAMLC=ocamlc
       OCAMLOPT=ocamlopt
       OCAMLDEP=ocamldep

       -nox   Ignore filenames containing `*' so that unexpanded wildcards are ignored.

       -obj   Print bytecode filenames (.cmo and .cmi) (deprecated: use -byte).

       -byte  Print bytecode filenames (.cmo and .cmi).
