NAME
otangle - translate WEB to PascalSYNOPSIS
otangle [ options ] webfile[.web] [ changefile[.ch] ]DESCRIPTION
This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete documentation for this version of TeX can be found in the info file or manual Web2C: A TeX implementation.The otangle program converts a Web source document into a Pascal program that may be compiled in the usual way with the on-line Pascal compiler (e.g., pc(1)). The output file is packed into lines of 72 characters or less, with the only concession to readability being the termination of lines at semicolons when this can be done conveniently.
The Web language allows you to prepare a single document containing all the information that is needed both to produce a compilable Pascal program and to produce a well-formatted document describing the program in as much detail as the writer may desire. The user of Web must be familiar with both TeX and Pascal. Web also provides a relatively simple, although adequate, macro facility that permits a Pascal program to be written in small easily-understood modules.
The command line should have either one or two names on it. The first is taken as the Web file (and .web is added if there is no extension). If there is another name, it is a change file (and .ch is added if there is no extension). The change file overrides parts of the Web file, as described in the Web system documentation.
The output files are a Pascal file and a string pool file, whose names are formed by adding .p and .pool respectively to the root of the Web file name.
OPTIONS
This version of otangle understands the following options. Note that some of these options may render the output unsuitable for processing by a Pascal compiler.- --help
- Print help message and exit.
- --version
- Print version information and exit.

AUTHORS
Web was designed by Donald E. Knuth, based on an earlier system called DOC (implemented by Ignacio Zabala). The tangle and weave programs are themselves written in Web. The system was originally ported to Unix at Stanford by Howard Trickey, and at Cornell by Pavel Curtis.otangle incorporates extensions for Omega, and is written by John Plaice and Yannis Haralambous.
This manpage has been written by Norbert Preining for Debian/GNU Linux by adapting the man page for tangle and may be used, modified and/or distributed freely by anyone.
