Package: funnelweb (3.2-6)

literate-programming tool

Literate-programming allows the programmer to write a program's code and the code's documentation, with equal importance accorded to both. This helps to produce well-documented code.

Unlike other literate-programming tools, funnelweb is not derived from Knuth's cweb.

It claims the following technical features:

 * Can be used with any programming language.
 * Runs on most platforms.
 * Mature and essentially bug-free (released 1992).
 * Simple; specifically designed to minimize errors.
 * High speed; doesn't stretch the development cycle.
 * Generates documentation in HTML and TeX forms.

This package does not include the reference, tutorial, and developer manuals. See package funnelweb-doc for these.
