Hi,
sorry to hear this literate discussion again and now with this
vector about it. I like
literate programs as they do improve programming help maintenance and many
other things. The present discussion may lack some practical aspects, which I
list below:
a) many scientific programs start as ha
Your efforts are not for nought;
however, you missed the same thing that Knuth missed:
The AXIOM/FRICAS/OpenAXIOM situation is the inverse problem
to working with an already literate program.
The panAXIOM problem is how to create a literate program from
an pre-literate one. Knuth fudged this wi

I think that we should get rid of noweb and declare
past attempt at literate programming as a failure.
More precisely, noweb markup is causing troubles.
They are not big troubles, but AFAICS we are getting
essentially no value from noweb so why bother with
it?
