RCBasic comes with 2 command-line tools for creating programs. The first is rcbasic_build which takes your sourcecode in your *.bas file and compiles it into a *.cbc file. The *.cbc file contains intermediate bytecode which can be ran with the rcbasic (rcbasic.exe on windows) application.
NOTE: On Windows, you need to include all the 32-bit dlls with the 32-bit executable and all the 64-bit dlls with the 64-bit executable. The rcbasic package tool will automatically do all of this for you as well as package for other systems as well.

Either (rcbasic/rcbasic_32) or (rcbasic/rcbasic_64) depending on your operating system. Once rcbasic is in your path you can simple pass a source file to rcbasic_build to create a *.cbc file.
