-This is the README file of the `tie' distribution.
- The current version is 2.4.
- This file was created on 18 Dec 92.
- This file was updated on 15 Jul 93.
-
-
-SUBJECT:
-
-`Tie' is a program which was first developed to allow WEB programmers
-(be it Pascal-, C- or any other WEB) to add more than one change file
-to their programs.
-
- But it can be used to create new versions of the WEB file with
-incorporated changes as well. This feature does not depend on any
-special WEB dialect, nor on using WEB at all, as the only controls to
-be interpreted are the change requests in the change files (delimited
-by @x, @y and @z).
- This makes `tie' also usable for any other language, or even data
-files. See the documentation tiedoc.tex and the example file tie.tie.
-
- Actually, this gives a second file update mechanism besides `patch'.
-Whereas patch relies on line numbers and/or precise contexts produced
-by diff, tie depends on the order of changes and on a an amount of
-context lines determined manually.
-
-
-REQUIREMENTS:
-
-This version of `tie' is written in CWEB. To preprocess and compile
-the source you will need a working `ctangle'.
- A pretangled tie.c is supplied which has been compiled successfully
-on a variety of workstations using either the manufacturer supplied
-C compiler in the K&R or ANSI version, or gcc (version 1.40).
- Please note, that the CWEB by Silvio Levy and Donald E. Knuth must
-be at least at version 2.8, to process and compile `tie' without
-problems.
-
-
