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.
