Description-en: C/C++ literate programming system (Marc van Leeuwen's version)
CWEBx is a complete rewrite of Levy & Knuth's version of CWEB.
It uses a slightly different syntax from the L&K version, but provides a
compatibility mode allowing L&K CWEB sources to be processed, producing
similar (though not necessarily identical) output.
.
CWEB allows you to write documents which can be used simultaneously as
C/C++ programs and as TeX documentation for them.
.
The philosophy behind CWEB is that programmers who want to provide the best
possible documentation for their programs need two things simultaneously: a
language like TeX for formatting, and a language like C for programming.
Neither type of language can provide the best documentation by itself. But
when both are appropriately combined, we obtain a system that is much more
useful than either language separately.
