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. - - -DISTRIBUTION: - -The reference version of tie may be retrieved by anonymous ftp from - - ftp.th-darmstadt.de [130.83.55.75] - directory pub/programming/literate-programming/Tools - file tie-<version>.tar.Z - -where <version> is the most current version number. - See the source file tie.w for details of the distribution policy. - - -BUGS/ENHANCEMENTS: - -If you detect bugs in the implementation of `tie' or have -suggestions to enhance functionality or improve portability, -please send a message to - - Klaus Guntermann <guntermann@iti.informatik.th-darmstadt.de> - |
