| Do you mean 
| 
|   axiom --tangle foo.pamphlet 
| 
| ?

For example.

| Would
| 
|   axiom foo.pamphlet
| 
| then do the same as currently 
| 
|   document foo.pamphlet
| 
| ?

 (1) latex the foo.tex
 (2) extract the root module and compile/interpret it

| I'd rather have
| 
|   axiom --document=tangle foo.pamphlet
| 
| tangle foo.pamphlet
| 
|   axiom --document foo.pamphlet
| 
| be equivalent to current
|   
|   document foo.pamphlet
| 
| and
| 
|   axiom foo.pamphlet
| 
| show a usage message just as axiom -h. 

I would also like to be able to dump intermediate representation,
compile to machine objects or FASLs, create a standalone executable.
