"Literate programming", they call it, right?
The particular typesettable style with rearrangement of code blocks for Pascal. Less monolithic languages can achieve similar rearrangement reasonably well by other means. But the exact manner of how comments and expositions are attached to the source code is not all that relevant; I was more referring to the scope, density and style of commenting. > Being in the public domain, it surprises me how restrictively > copyrighted it is wrt. modifying. Modifications must not be called "TeX", a trademarked term. That's all. We got modifications like eTeX, PDFTeX, Omega, Alpha, LuaTeX, XeTeX... In contrast to usual trademark hounders, the mere presence of the TeX graphic letter sequence in a derived work does not trigger the wrath of the AMS as trademark owner. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
