NAME

       hy - a Lisp dialect that's embedded in Python

SYNOPSIS

       hy [<file.hy>]

DESCRIPTION

       Hy  (or  "Hylang"  for long) is a multi-paradigm general-purpose programming language in the Lisp family.
       It's implemented as a kind of alternative syntax for Python. Compared to Python, Hy offers a  variety  of
       extra features, generalizations, and syntactic simplifications, as would be expected of a Lisp.  Compared
       to  other  Lisps, Hy provides direct access to Python's built-ins and third-party Python libraries, while
       allowing you to freely mix imperative, functional, and object-oriented styles of programming.

       To get a list of allowable arguments to hy, type

              hy --help
