    Cool project. I have a dream to make something like this for drawing spatially. Came to the parent to share my current project which spell checks websites. It found a few small typ…

    Literate programming requires that there is freedom in ordering content in the literate file. Otherwise, you are restricted to the execution order of the computer. The intent of li…

    Here is an updated example, because a few people were asking for a more complex example. This is the literate version of the root of the program. *Note that the markdown doesn't in…

    If you follow the project, I'm currently writing up the src in literate style :).

    This is a feature I'm looking to add. It was designed to be included. When I parse the lit file, I record the line no. which will be represented in comments in the generated source…

    There should be an HTML class. In the resulting docs I still need a way to separate them from the underlying language (that could be anything). Initially I thought ` >` looked arch…

    The narrative doesn't have to jump all over the place. If anything, defining macros allows you greater flexibility. Also, using macros allows for defining different levels of langu…

    The project is still early, and the html generation is rudimentary. Will be working soon to validate. Not sure what you mean by appearing twice. I debated removing the " >" syntax …
