nope. that's not the case.
noweb is just a preprocessing tool, not a requirement for
literate programming.
there is no requirement (or intended requirement) that a .pamphlet
file implies running noweb. some of the files in any documented
axiom system will not contain code and will not need noweb. they
are, however, perfectly vaild .pamphlet files.

Please define the format of a .pamphlet file so that people can write
tools to support that format. (If the format is moving, that is not a
problem, but we should always have an up-to-date description of that
format.)
Up to now I thought the format is like the one in noweb, but already
with your patch to noweb, you modified that. Without a documented format
we end up like SPAD is now. A language without formal specification.
Good luck.
