WEAVE(1) 2025" WEAVE(1) NAME weave - translate WEB to TeX SYNOPSIS weave [-p] [-x] webfile[.web] [{changefile[.ch]|-} [outfile[.tex]]] DESCRIPTION This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete documen- tation for this version of TeX can be found in the info file or manual Web2C: A TeX implementation. The weave program is used to create a TeX file for viewing a Web pro- gram. It takes appropriate care of typographic details like page lay- out and the use of indentation, italics, boldface, etc., and it sup- plies extensive cross-index information that it gathers automatically. The command line arguments are the same as for tangle except for the options: -p says to use alternative macros more suited for PDF output. -x says to omit the index, module name list, and table of contents pages. (A CONTENTS.tex file will still be written when the TeX file is processed, however, unless some macros in webmac.tex are redefined.) The output TeX file name is formed by adding .tex to the root of the Web file name or from the third argument. In this case you can specify '-' as an empty change file. There are several macros that probably should be redefined by the pro- grammer at the beginning of the Web file. It is a good idea to set \title to the name of the program. And, to cause output of only changed modules, one can say \let\maybe=\iffalse (usually as the first change in the change file). ENVIRONMENT The environment variable WEBINPUTS is used to search for the input files, or the system default if WEBINPUTS is not set. See tex(1) for the details of the searching. FILES $TEXMFMAIN/tex/plain/knuth-lib/webmac.tex TeX macros used by weave output. $TEXMFMAIN/tex/plain/pwebmac/pwebmac.tex alternative TeX macros used for PDF output.
