NAME

       tie - merge or apply WEB change files

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

       The  tie  program  is  used  to process multiple change files used with the WEB system for
       literate programming.  The WEB programs allow one to apply patches to a source  file  (the
       masterfile)  by  means  of  a  number  of change files (often only a single change file is
       allowed).  Tie 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 one.  Output of either the
       new change file or the patched master file goes into outputfile.

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