I usually use .anansi, but it doesn't matter. You can use whatever
extensions you like, or even none at all.

Anansi is a preprocessor for literate programs, in the model of NoWeb
or nuweb. Literate programming allows both computer code and
documentation to be generated from a single unified source.

but I can email you a postscript file
directly if you want.
Haskell is the first language where I've managed to work happily with
literate programming - partly because of the direct integration and
partly because the order isn't critical and the code is compact.

I agree with Mark that literate programming is messed up in Haskell. I
think that it is even worse than he says and hence I don't use it
anymore at all.

Hi Koen,
I think that literate programming is a great idea, but I don't
think Haskell does it justice. I'll suggest a simple solution
to your problem at the end of this message. You can skip there

more and describe wha
This one of the reasons why I never use literate programming. I always
forget the blank lines, and then after being puzzled by the error, I
remember it, and get completely turned off.

Hi all!
I recently started hacking up some webpages that explain
some programming tricks in Haskell. For convenience, I
wanted these files to be runnable. Of course, literate
programming comes to the rescue.
Not!
Take a look at the following HTML literate fragment

Since we're debating literate programming and embedded documentation,
I wonder what is the point, what are we trying to achieve?
Is it to
a) write books or papers containing pieces of code?
b) add some formatting and functionality to comment blocks?
c) make source code easier to navigat
