SchemeWEB2 is largely based on SchemeWEB.
The only change for installation is that the default prefix directory
is $HOME. For other changes, refer to the man page.
Here is what the README of SchemeWEB says :
--------------------------------------------------------------------
$Id: README,v 2.1 94/07/22 07:00:10 ramsdell Exp $
SchemeWEB---Simple support for literate programming in Lisp.
SchemeWEB is a Unix filter that allows you to generate both Lisp and
LaTeX code from one source file. The generated LaTeX code formats
Lisp programs in typewriter font obeying the spacing in the source
file. Comments can include arbitrary LaTeX commands. SchemeWEB was
originally developed for the Scheme dialect of Lisp, but it can easily
be used with most other dialects.
Version 2.1 implements several improvements over the version 1.2 which
was released in 1990.
* The LaTeX source generated from a SchemeWEB file no longer requires
the use of a style option, such as the astyped option required by the
previous version. The output is similar to that produced by c2latex.
* By default, Lisp source generated from a SchemeWEB file includes all
comments. As a result, the filter can translate the Lisp source
generated from a SchemeWEB file directly into LaTeX source.
* The filter can translate the Lisp source generated from a SchemeWEB
file into the original SchemeWEB file.
As a result of these changes, a SchemeWEB file can be stored and
distributed as a standard Lisp file by tangling the SchemeWEB file.
For the purposes of editing comments, the SchemeWEB file can be
recovered by untangling the Lisp file. LaTeX documentation can be
generated from both the Lisp file or the SchemeWEB file.
Version 2.1 patches version 2.0 so it now correctly formats strings
which span more than one line of text.
Installation:
1) Create the executable by typing:
make
2) Install the executable and the manual page by typing:
make install
By default the makefile will install the executable in $(prefix)/bin
and the manual page in $(prefix)/man/man1, where prefix=/usr/local.
You can change the prefix by typing:
make prefix=<Your path> install
You can also change the installation targets by editing the makefile.
3) You can modify the reader used by your Lisp system's standard LOAD
so that it can read SchemeWEB files directly. To make this change,
follow the model given in "reader.sw", a reader of SchemeWEB source
for the R4RS dialect of Scheme.
A formatted version of the manual page follows.

NAME
sweb - Simple support for literate programming in Lisp.
SYNOPSIS
sweb [-stuvwx] [input_file [output_file]]
DESCRIPTION
A SchemeWEB file is a Lisp source file which contains code
sections and comment sections, but each section is identi-
fied in a novel way. A code section begins with a line
whose first character is a left parenthesis. It continues
until a line is found which contains the parenthesis that
matches the one which started the code section. The remain-
ing lines of text in the source file are treated as com-
ments.
Several operations involving SchemeWEB files are provided by
the sweb program.
The -t option translates a SchemeWEB file into a standard
Lisp file. It simply adds an initial semicolon to comment
lines that lack them, and passes code sections through
unchanged. This process is called tangling the SchemeWEB
file.
The -w option translates a SchemeWEB file into a LaTeX
source file. Text is added to code sections so that LaTeX
will print the code verbatim. Comment sections are passed
through unchanged except that if the first character of a
line is a semicolon, it is excised. This makes it possible
to process a SchemeWEB file which has been tangled. This
process is called weaving the SchemeWEB file. This is the
default action of sweb.
The -x option weaves a SchemeWEB file as above, except the
LaTeX source produced inhibits page breaks in code sections.
The -u option translates a Lisp file which has been produced
from a SchemeWEB file back into a SchemeWEB file. It simply
removes the first semicolon in every line that starts with
one as its first character. This process is called untan-
gling a sweb produced Lisp file.
The -s option tangles a SchemeWEB file and strips all com-
ments from the file.
The -v option prints version information.
A SchemeWEB file can be stored and distributed as a standard
Lisp file by tangling the SchemeWEB file. For the purposes
of editing comments, the SchemeWEB file can be recovered by
untangling the Lisp file. LaTeX documentation can be
generated from both the Lisp file or the SchemeWEB file.
SchemeWEB was originally developed for the Scheme dialect of
Lisp; however, it became obvious that no changes were
required to support most other dialects. SchemeWEB's name
reflects its heritage.
