Brief description:
AFTWEB uses a CWEB-like syntax. It uses AFT for documentation
markup (AFT is a minimalistic, yet powerful, markup language
with very few commands). AFTWEB was written in AFTWEB (using
C++) and the weaved document is available online (as HTML) at
the URL listed above.
Support for C and C++ is supplied. You can easily support other
languages (such as Java and Perl) by writing a new language
description file.
The markup language AFT is very easy to learn and is available
at the same URL as AFTWEB.
