NAME
weave - translate WEB to TeX
SYNOPSIS
weave [ -x ] webfile[.web] [ changefile[.ch] ]
DESCRIPTION
The weave program is used to create a TeX file for viewing a Web
program. It takes appropriate care of typographic details like page
layout and the use of indentation, italics, boldface, etc., and it
supplies extensive cross-index information that it gathers
automatically. The command line arguments are the same as for tangle
except for the option: -x says to omit the index, module name list,
and table of contents pages. (A CONTENTS.tex file will still be
written when the TeX file is processed, however, unless some macros in
webmac.tex are redefined.)
The output TeX file name is formed by adding .tex to the root of the
Web file name.
There are several macros that probably should be redefined by the
programmer at the beginning of the Web file. It is a good idea to set
\title to the name of the program. And, to cause output of only
changed modules, one can say \let\maybe=\iffalse (usually as the first
change in the change file).
FILES
