This zip file contains original C source code, "hacker's manual", and
test suite for the literate programming tool "funnelweb", together
with the patches and makefile used to port funnelweb to OS/2 2.0. The
author of funnelweb is Ross Williams ([e-mail]), and
it was ported to OS/2 2.0 by Paul Lyon ([e-mail]).
Funnelweb is copyright Ross Williams, but he has released it under
Version 2 of the GNU General Public License. The executable and user's
manual are in a file called "funnel-x.zip" which should be available
from the achive site or bbs from whence you acquired this file.

I used gcc/2 for the port, and GNU make to run the makefile.  I ran
gcc/2 with full optimization (-O2); the resulting executable passes
all the tests in the test suite Williams provides. Only minor changes
to the source were required. I added a define "OS2" to those files
with system dependencies (environ.h, machin.h, machin.c, and
command.c), and made two modifications to get around some difficulties
in the C library and include files supplied with gcc/2. The first of
these is in the file "misc.c"; I added a couple of "fflush(stdout);"
statements, since the stdio implementation for gcc/2 fully buffers
stdout.  Secondly, the "toupper()" and "tolower()" macros in the
"ctype.h" header file are not ANSI standard; I added a kludge to the
end of the file "style.h" to repair this. Finally, I made one change
to the file texhead.tex to change the characters used to bracket code
sections, to use the TeX characters \lfloor and \lceil instead of
\lbrace and \rbrace, since I find the results more pleasing. I have
prepared a context diff file "patches.os2", which can be fed to
"patch" to incorporate the changes, but have also provided the
modified source files just in case.

Enjoy,

Paul Lyon ([e-mail]).
