ocaml-crunch takes a directory of files and compiles them into a standalone OCaml module which serves the contents directly from memory. This can be convenient for libraries that need a few embedded files (such as a web server) and do not want to deal with all the trouble of file configuration.

Run man ocaml-crunch or ocaml-crunch --help for more information:
