For about two years now, I have written all my C programs using Silvio Levy's C version of Knuth's WEB system of structured documentation. Now, I have a new toy---to wit, a Mac II. I also have Lightspeed C. I would love to be able to run my existing WEB files on my Mac, in addition to creating new ones. I realize it might be possible to port tangle and weave from UNIX to my Mac, but the necessary modifications are way beyond my capabilities (I'm just a EE who wants to do some simulations). In addition, Levy's CWEB is full of bugs (e.g. the formatting is abysmal) so I figure I might try to get a new version with hopes that it is better, while saving myself some work in the meantime. The question is, is there a C version of WEB for the Mac available? If it was a good translation of Knuth's WEB, I'd probably be willing to fork over some of my company's cash for it (and others here would too, I'm sure). Anyone know of such a thing as I have described? Thanks in advance, Sean O'Neil
