Many thanks.
Obviously, there have been many talks about this noweb thingy.  I just
don't understand why it lingers for so long.

If people agree that the undefined chunks are bugs, then this whole
noweb stuff is an unfortunate mystifying coverup.

Do you think you will have a chance to test it soon?

Below you find the example of the code that I sent to Norman Ramsey.
I've just downloaded noweb 2.11 and compiled it. No problem with the code below anymore. BUT... see next mail.

Is it by design that

/usr/lib/noweb/markup test.nw > out.markup
gives

echo $?
2

and as output

test.nw:3: unescaped << in documentation chunk
test.nw:5: Module name doesn't end
test.nw:5: unescaped << in documentation chunk
test.nw:6: Module name doesn't end
test.nw:6: unescaped << in documentation chunk

for the little file test.nw

%%%%% test.nw %%%%%
A test file.

<<*>>=
-- Here comes some code
<<: A -> B
<<: (A, B) -> X
@
and we go on with the text.

%%%%%% end test.nw %%%%
