NAME

       ctie - merge or apply CWEB change files

SYNOPSIS

       ctie -c|-m outputfile masterfile changefile...

DESCRIPTION

       The  ctie  program  is  used  to  process  multiple  change  files used with the CWEB system for literate
       programming.  The CWEB programs allow one to apply patches to a source file (the masterfile) by means  of
       a  single  change  file.   ctie can be used to either merge up to 32 change files into a single one or to
       apply the changes to the masterfile in order to create a new master  file.   Output  of  either  the  new
       change file or the patched master file goes into outputfile.  Any include files (indicated using the CWEB
       @i  command)  are  fully  expanded  during ctie processing, which means that the change files are able to
       modify the contents of any included files.

OPTIONS

       -c     Create a single change file from the given changefiles.

       -m     Create a new master file by applying the given changefiles.

ENVIRONMENT

       The environment variable CWEBINPUTS is used to search for the input  files,  or  the  system  default  if
       CWEBINPUTS  is  not  set.   See  tex(1)  for the details of the searching.  To avoid conflicts with other
       programs that also use the CWEBINPUTS environment, you can be more specific and use  CWEBINPUTS_ctie  for
       special requirements in CTIE.
