Description:
dpp is a C/C++ prettyprinter for noweb. Its output is extremely
similar to that of CWEB, but it respects the indentation and
line breaks of the source file.

Features include:

o user-defined keywords

o the ability to turn prettyprinting off for specified output
files (e.g., makefiles)

o the option to typeset comments in TeX, or not

o prettyprinting of quoted code, in documentation or chunk names

o the ability to undo whitespace hand-formatting that looks good
monospaced but awful in a proportional font
