Experiences of Literate Programming using cweb (a variant of Knuth's WEB)
Department of Computer Science, University of York, Heslington, York YO1 5DD, UK
Cweb is a literate programming system for the programming language C. Experience developing and using it forms the basis of this paper, the purpose of which is to:
- support Knuth's enthusiasm for literate programming;
- discuss developments in literate programming support, both within the current framework of cweb and to interactive graphics support;
- discuss the implementation issues, considering cweb as part of a simple IPSE (Integrated Project Support Environment); the conclusions for IPSEs appear pessimistic.
