Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package fweb, which is part
of the devel section, and maintained by Yann Dirson
<dirson at debian.org>. 

This package contains : A literate-programming tool for
C/C++/Fortran/Ratfor.

Literate-programming allows the programmer to write a program's
code and its code's documentation, with equal importance accorded
to both. This helps producing a well-documented code.

FWEB has grown out of Knuth and Levy's CWEB; it is far more
configurable and customizable than the original, uses LaTeX to
typeset documented code, provides a very powerful macro processor...

Ratfor programmers may appreciate the builtin Ratfor-to-Fortran
translator if they don't have the right compiler.

Other languages than those cited may be used, but without code
pretty-printing.
