It was written -- ---originally for conversion to PASCAL---by D. E. Knuth in September, -- 1981; a somewhat similar SAIL program had been developed in March, -- 1979. Since this program describes itself, a bootstrapping process -- involving hand-translation had to be used to get started. The -- conversion to Ada has been done by U. Schweigert in May 1988. -- -- The program consists of three parts : Ada code for atangle, aweave, -- and supporting files for Tex. Bootstrap versions of the .aweb files -- are included within the supporting files .src file. -- -- Thus there are three files: atangle.src, aweave.src, and texfiles.src. -- -- All files have maintained the original names as distributed by the -- original author. -- -- Additional support files include local modifications by PCS GMBH for -- their system by Horst Kern. -- ------------------ Revision history --------------------------- -- -- DATE VERSION AUTHOR HISTORY -- 7/14/89 1.0 U.
