This is a transitional package which depends on texlive-latex-extra; that package now contains the cweb-latex package.

LaTeX CWEB is a bundle that allows you to use LaTeX as the documentation markup of your CWEB program. Your CWEB programs may be LaTeX documents now -- with sections, subsections, environments, figures, graphics inclusion, etc.

You will want to use this bundle if you
- are a CWEB programmer and use LaTeX elsewhere,
- haven't used CWEB up to now, because you wanted structured markup
(and you didn't want to develop it yourself), or
- want a hierarchic document structure for CWEB programs.
