   There is an excellent book available on WEB, which should answer
just about any question you might have on getting started with this 
system.
   it is:             WEAVING A PROGRAM
                      Literate programming in WEB
              Author: Wayne Sewell
           Copyright: 1989 @ Van Nostrand Reinhold
              Price : 34.95 at the local Uni bookstore (not known for discounts)    

   I should add that I know neither the author, the publisher, nor anyone
who has ever met either of the above.This is an endorsement rather that an add.

   It covers the different "dialects", and includes a chapter on porting.I was 
to get both TANGLE and WEAVE up and running on an Atari ST within a day with
no major problems, from the original .WEB files with the Prospero Pascal
system.

   Anyway, this is an excellent reference for anyone trying to get going.

   .....now,if I can just get used to thinking in WEB...
