2.3.1.2. Interactive Shell Mode
Running an executable with the -s option starts an interactive Tcl shell. For example, to open the Intel® Quartus® Prime Timing Analyzer executable in interactive shell mode, type:
quartus_sta -s
Commands you type in the Tcl shell are interpreted when you press Enter. To run a Tcl script in the interactive shell type:
source <script name>
If a command is not recognized by the shell, it is assumed to be external and executed with the exec command.
