The Eqela Runtime can download and cache tools from a remote repository and run them on demand. The syntax is as follows:

eqela vendor:tool:version command <parameters>

For example, to run the Sling compiler release 311 and get usage instructions:

eqela eqela:slingc:r311 slingc -help

Note that there is no need for a separate "installation of the Sling compiler" prior to doing this. The Eqela runtime will take care of that.

To get a hex dump of a file:

eqela eqela:jsh:r2 hexdump myfile.txt
