Noweb is a Literate Programming tool which is indifferent towards the programming language used, and can be adapted to different documentation languages. The woven output of noweb looks very TeXish ie. quite agnostic wrt the macro package. Noweb.sty provides a LaTeX style to interpret the cross-references and markups, but also gives some TeX support. It should be possible, however, to write a module that redefines the noweb TeX macros to be on top of ConTeXt. This would enable one to use the power of ConTeXt cross-referencing tools and maybe some Metafun stuff to clarify things. I am planning to put up a poster on a congress with some Literate Programming on it and I am thinking of using cells and arrows to highlight the relation between the code snippets. Has anybody tried this before? With ConTeXt, that is. Greetings Johannes -- Johannes Hüsing | Domain: Adresse im Internet.
