Andreas Scherer submitted an update to the

cweb

package.

Version number: 4.2 License type: knuth

Summary description: A Web system in C

Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

In the course of the 2021 TeX tuneup, Don Knuth kindly transferred the responsibility for CWEB to me; see the original CWEB home page (https://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/cweb.html), section CWEB 4.0.

This first new release draws heavily on the multi-decade work collected in my CWEBbin project (https://github.com/ascherer/cwebbin). I moved (almost) all stuff from the *-patch.* changefiles into the new CWEB sources and applied all of the *-ansi.* changes as well.

Moreover, I made common.h the full interface of common.w in order to avoid code redundancy. And I tried to fix as many of the bugs reported by email to DEK and/or tex-k@tug.org.

In total, make; make cautiously; make fullmanual runs flawlessly with GCC on Linux and with CLang on MacOS. And with the help of the remaining stuff in the CWEBbin project, CWEB is smoothly integrated in TeX Live.
