Hi John,

thanks for the pointer, useful reference to have.

It bugs me that Sage not listed on page 6 in the table of existing
tools.  It covers much of the same ground... (so does the ipython
notebook, but that didn't exist when this was written; but Sage most
certainly did).

To be fair, though the notebook allows for code and documentation to be intermixed, it's not the traditional literate programming tool that allows you to, on the one hand, produce nice documentation, but on the other hand, produce a single runnable file. And it's a far cry from something like noweb, that can reorder your code when it "tangles".

The ipython notebook is closer to this, since you guys explicitly export to a python file, and also export (or will export) other formats that nicely present everything.

Thanks,

Jason
